“It is with great sadness that we share the news that one of our Bears passed away,” Sylvan Hills High shared.

School officials did not release any further information but did say the family will be holding funeral services for Simmons on Feb. 15 at the Mount Pisgah Baptist Church.

The Associated Press reported that the flu season is the most intense it’s been in at least 15 years. The flu has even forced schools to shut down in some states.

Overall, 43 states have reported high or very high flu activity within the last week. The flu has been most intense in the South, Southwest and Western states.

Do you think if you tio ass rimmed by my ex mentor the news will be reported in Arkansas?
 
This is such a tragic loss. It’s heartbreaking to see the flu season hit so hard, especially with its intensity this year. As an active Canadian Pharmacy B2B Partner site user, we've seen increased demand for flu vaccines and treatments. And we emphasize the importance of vaccinations and proactive measures to prevent such severe outcomes. As flu rates rise, it’s more important than ever for health systems and businesses to collaborate on better preventative measures and treatments.
