Reports indicate an unusually mild flu-season in N.C.

From the News & Observer:

RALEIGH — The 2011-2012 flu season seems to be in its final weeks, but it’s hard to tell for sure, because – like winter itself this year – it barely happened.

The flu season usually builds in fall, hits a peak in late winter and wanes in spring. This time, it started late and never really picked up steam, according to figures from the state’s flu monitoring system.
