STOCKBRIDGE – With cooler weather just around the corner, coming with it is the flu season, a period that usually peaks between December and February but can last as late as May.
This year’s flu season, however, looks a little different than most, as the country is also dealing with the coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.
