OK, so you didn't get sick with the flu last year. Good for you.

That was last year!

That's the message from both federal and local health officials as this year's influenza season gets underway.

Though last year's flu season was the mildest on record, two new strains have appeared this year. According to the Centers for Disease Control, influenza cases are off to a slow start so there is still plenty of time to get a shot. Though young children and the elderly are most at risk, the CDC recommends that everyone six months or older get a flu shot.

Walgreens on Peachtree Parkway is among the facilities in Peachtree Corners offering flu vaccinations.
