      39 flu deaths reported

      Arkansas Department of Health reported another death from influenza Thursday, bringing the total in the state to 39 this season.

      Of the 39, 27 reported deaths are between ages 25 and 64, according to department spokeswoman Kerri Krell.

      Krell said the age group is particularly susceptible to this season?s primary flu strain, H1N1.

      The age group is also one that has not been the target demographic for free flu shot clinics and awareness efforts.

      Elderly, health care workers, pregnant women and the very young have been encouraged by the health department to receive the vaccine, available in nasal mist and shot form.

      People ages 25 to 64 are generally more healthy, Krell said, and have well-developed immune systems.
