Medical clinics in Door and Kewaunee counties are taking steps to prevent the spread of the flu as more people are coming in for treatment.  The numbers of flu cases are rising earlier than usual this year.  That's prompted hospitals nationwide to restrict visitors to those 14 years and older.  Kelly McBride Moore, Bellin Health Communications Specialist, says there are no visitor restrictions at any of its clinics, though people are being asked to follow some simple steps.

Those precautions are in use at Bellin Health clinics and walk-in facilities in Sturgeon Bay, Algoma, Luxemburg, and Kewaunee.
