Flu is spreading on the University of Wisconsin-Madison campus, with 74 percent more cases reported in the second week of classes than in the first week.
University Health Services reported that 345 students with flu-like symptoms were evaluated in week two Sept. 6-12 of the fall semester, compared to 198 in the first week Sept. 1-5.
While the number of flu cases is up, UHSâ?? executive director, Dr. Sarah Van Orman, said she didnâ??t think the outbreak was growing exponentially.
“The good news is the level of activity is fairly similar to the first week,” Van Orman said.
