We`re about a month into flu season and we`re already hearing reports of influenza in North Dakota. At least 12 people in the state have been diagnosed with the flu. Two of them live in long-term care facilities.

Typical flu symptoms include fever, headache, sore throat and runny or stuffy nose. The State Health Department urges people six months and older to get a flu shot. Last year more than 1,400 people in North Dakota got the flu.

More than 70 of them ended up in the hospital.
