🤧A new flu strain – H3N2 subclade K – is spreading this season. The flu virus changes often, and multiple strains spread at the same time. 💉 A yearly flu vaccine offers protection, even if it is not a perfect match to circulating strains.
Pie chart showing Flu A as the dominant strain in Virginia from October to December 2025, with smaller portions for Flu A(H3), Flu A(H1), and Flu B.
