SAN JOSE — Two Santa Clara County residents — an adult with chronic illness and a healthy child who returned from an overseas trip — died of influenza this month, according to county public health officials.
The adult who died was younger than 65 and had a chronic illness, which increased the person’s risk of severe flu complications, according to Director of Public Health Dr. Sara Cody.
