Children's flu cases up 40% in the last week, North Texas hospital says
Children's Health says it saw a large spike in flu cases last week.
During the week of January 14, Children's Health says it saw more than 407 patients with the flu system-wide.
That's a 40% jump from the previous week.
Despite the increase in flu, RSV and COVID cases dropped throughout the month of January.
