Flu epidemic is atypical this season
In Kansas, peak hit two months early
By Katherine Manweiler
Kansan staff writer
February is normally the month when health-care providers brace themselves for a flood of flu patients, but that has not been necessary this year.
Andrew Pelletier, epidemiologist for the Kansas Department of Health and Environment, said that this season the flu epidemic in Kansas seemed to have happened two months earlier than usual.
"Traditionally, late January and February are the peak times, but this year that has not been the case," he said. "We appear to have had a peak in very early November."
Pelletier said that many more Kansas residents were vaccinated against the flu this season than in the
past, but that he did not have specific numbers because most of the flu shots were given by private physicians who did not give statistics to the state health department.
"The fact that the outbreak started in November probably encouraged a lot of people to get flu shots," Pelletier said.
Charles Yockey, chief of staff at Watkins Memorial Health Center, said Watkins treated its first seven flu patients since the beginning of the year Tuesday.
"This year has been the most bizarre flu season we've had in the past 10 years," he said. "We normally start seeing flu patients around Jan. 20 and it peaks on Feb. 1 and then dies out before spring break. This year, there was no flu after Christmas break until now."
Yokeck students often confused other illnesses for the flu. Flu symptoms include abrupt onset of fever, headache and severe muscle aches.
About 500 students got flu shots at
Watkins this fall, but that group was so small that Yockey does not attribute the drop in flu cases to the increase in vaccinations.
"We are not recommending flu shots anymore, because if you got one right now, the flu season would be over before the vaccine took effect," Yockey said.
The number of flu shots given this winter by the health department has been much greater than in past years.
Barbara Schnitker, director of nursing for the Douglas County Health Department, said she thought an increase in flu shots could be responsible for the decrease in flu cases in Douglas County.
Since October, the health department has injected 3,478 people with the flu vaccine, which is up from 2,639 shots given in 1990.
"The flu kind of seems to run its course, and we really haven't heard a whole lot about it lately," Schnitker said.
