Center for disease control urges people to get flu shot

“It is never too late for the vaccine. Even now, the high-risk groups must be vaccinated,” the center said in a press release, noting however that the outbreaks have so far been low in Greece.
“The most likely scenario is that the subtype A (Η3Ν2) will prevail,” epidemiologist Takis Panagiotopoulos, who works with KEELPNO, told Athens-Macedonian News Agency (ANA). “The virus tends to affect mainly older people, a group that should be vaccinated, as well as the chronically ill and health professionals, regardless of age.” 
Authorities have so far recorded one death from a confirmed case of influenza A and 10 serious cases of confirmed influenza, with hospitalization of the patients in intensive care units. The patient who died belonged to the high-risk groups.
The peak of the flu season is expected in February and March, the center said.
