Health officials have blamed influenza for the deaths of three elderly people in Lexington.

Lexington-Fayette County Health Department spokesman Kevin Hall told WKYT-TV that the three had other health complications, but flu was the proximate cause of their deaths.

Flu cases have been reported all over Kentucky. The peak of the flu season, late January and early February, is approaching, but it usually runs into May, so health officials recommend that everyone get a flu shot. Many pharmacies across the state still offer the shots.
