Flu cases in South Australia are surging, doubling every two weeks—with 325 new infections and 11 deaths this year. Mollie Ellis, a 28-year-old breast cancer survivor, got her flu shot but still ended up hospitalized for 11 days, nearly needing a ventilator. Her story underscores that even vaccinated people can get severely ill, especially with weakened immune systems. Despite this, vaccination rates remain low among older adults—about a third of those 65+ still unvaccinated—while kids’ rates have slightly improved thanks to the needle-free FluMist. Mollie urges everyone to get vaccinated not just for themselves, but for the community, because you never know how the flu might hit someone else.
