In spite of low COVID-19, flu and RSV activity in suburban Cook County, Cook County Department of Public Health is still urging residents to get vaccinated. COVID-19, flu and RSV activity is low for the week ending Jan. 31. Flu activity is trending downward, and RSV activity recently decreased from moderate to low, according to Cook County’s latest respiratory surveillance data. However, it’s not unusual to see another wave of flu in the spring.
