	Description:		Flu season is here, and it's a bad one. A 15-year-old boy with no pre-existing medical conditions has died from the flu in South Australia, and there have already been about 40,000 confirmed cases. Even so, this year's flu is only a minor mutation on previous years. It's the major mutations that worry scientists. So given it's been a while since the last one, are we due? And more importantly, are we ready? Featured: Professor Bill Rawlinson, Senior Medical Virologist, NSW Health Pathology
