Help us better understand how flu affects our community!

We’ve partnered with Flu Near You and CDC on a pilot project where participants who develop flu-like symptoms submit a nasal swab to our lab. This project will help us learn more about flu in Minnesota because not everyone who has the flu has to go to the doctor. Want to participate? It’s simple and free! Do these two things…

• Sign up for Flu Near You (https://flunearyou.org/#!/).
• Then, go to our Flu Near You: Minnesota Department of Health  (https://flunearyou.org/#!/minnesota) website to learn more and enroll in our project.
