People in Minnesota cannot sneeze out the flu

The St. Paul Pioneer Press reports that two more children have died of influenza raising the deaths to three this season.

The two children who recently died both lived in the Minneapolis area. One child was 8-years-old and the other was a 17-month old.

The StarTribune reports parents are getting worried from the recent deaths. Children's Hospital and Clinics announced they will be giving out free flu vaccinations on Saturday in the St. Paul area.

State officials are saying that the flu virus is not as dangerous than any other year. State officials are making it clear to parents to get their children vaccinated because none of the children that died had flu shots.
