INDIANAPOLIS, Ind  — Indiana health officials say the state has recorded its first influenza-related death of the 2018-19 season.

Flu season typically runs from October through May.

State Health Commissioner Kris Box said Friday, “We don’t typically see flu-related deaths this early in the season, but flu viruses circulate year-round.”

Box encourages anyone who hasn’t received a flu shot to get one.

The department did not release any details on the person who died.
