Summary
Flu season is hitting hard down under, with hospitals already in surge mode as cases spike—especially since May’s cold snap. Experts warn the peak could hit as early as August, though school holidays might delay it slightly. Don’t wait until you’re sick—get your flu shot now, as immunity takes time to build. Plus, RSV cases are rising too, especially for kids, while COVID remains low. Vaccination isn’t just about personal protection—it’s key to easing the strain on hospitals and keeping the healthcare system from buckling under the load.
