Experts urge vaccination as peak flu season looms in Beijing
Top public health experts are urging people to be vaccinated for the seasonal flu as the country is facing an epidemic more serious than last year.
Feng Zijian, deputy director of the Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention, said it is even tougher to contain flu viruses as people head home for this year's Spring Festival.
"Compared with previous years, the flu viruses are much more active, especially in southern China," he warned.
