Switzerland remains in the grip of a flu epidemic.
Last week, the number of cases hit a new record high. The Federal Health Office says the worse is yet to come.
Doctors say this flu wave comes with a surprisingly persistent cough.

Also, get vaccinated. The health office recommends anyone over 65 should get jabbed.
