Local doctor talks about this year's flu strain and how Tamiflu isn't working

ampa, Fla. - It's that time of year. The Centers for Disease Control says flu season usually peaks in the United States around January or February.

Florida's flu season is the latest in the country, starting February 1st and lasting into early April.

We talked with the Chief of Pediatrics at Florida Hospital who says it's been a slow flu season so far and it may actually be late this year.

Dr. James Orlowski also talked with us about how the virus is incredibly resistant to the popular anti-viral medication, Tamiflu.
