The Minnesota Department of Health says this flu season is the mildest the state has seen in recent years. New health department data shows 52 people have been hospitalized with lab–confirmed influenza since fall, and three people have died. The reports show at this time last year, hospitalizations were more than double that number, and deaths were triple. Some say the mild winter might be a factor because people are spending less time congregated indoors, so the virus might not spread as easily.
