Flu now 'widespread' in Pennsylvania, state says

Flu activity in Pennsylvania is now listed as "widespread."

According to the state Department of Health, there are more than 6,000 confirmed flu cases in the state. But Channel 11 found out that number may not even be close to how many cases there really are.

"The flu is probably the only infectious disease that can cause a worldwide calamity, and it has done that multiple times in the past," said Dr. Amesh Adalja.
