Seasonal Flu: Illinois 23 Deaths In One Week

I previously posted on Illinois back on January 9th, here:

January 8, 2013
...In Illinois alone, 147 people have been admitted to intensive care units at hospitals, six of whom have died, Illinois Public Health Director Dr. LaMar Hasbrouck told CBS Chicago. 
 3 days later, on January 11th, the State Health Dept. posted this:

... The number of flu-related intensive care unit (ICU) hospitalizations so far this year is 368, with 27 flu-related ICU deaths.

On January 18th, the media, has this.  From CBS:

...Illinois Department of Public Health spokeswoman Melaney Arnold said Friday that 476 people have been admitted to hospital intensive care units with the flu this season and 50 have died.
