Just the sniffles? Could be the flu.

Cases of the flu have been steadily decreasing since they peaked just after Thanksgiving, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. The CDC says while cases are low right now, February tends to be the peak of flu season in Utah, so cases are likely to peak again before the end of flu season.

Anna grew up begging her mom to play music instead of public radio over the car stereo on the way to school. Now, she loves radio and the power of storytelling through sound. While she is happy to report on anything from dance concerts to laughter practice, her main focus at UPR is political reporting. She is studying Journalism and Political Science at Utah State University and wants to work in political communication after she graduates. In her free time, she spends time with her rescue dog Quigley and enjoys rock climbing.
