This season, a new influenza A variant has spread widely by evading immunity and has caused unusually high hospitalizations and ER visits among young children.

Dr. Zachary Binder, a pediatric emergency medicine physician at UMass Memorial Children's Medical Center, said that many of the patients he saw during the December wave developed serious symptoms, including extremely high fevers, seizures and dehydration.

Cases may have peaked in December, but flu season isn’t over just yet.

Kids don't care much about advanced medicine, cutting edge research, innovative treatments or the latest techniques in pediatric care. All they know is that the hospital can be a scary place. We've got that covered, too. This is UMass Memorial Medical Center – Children's Medical Center.
