This year's flu has its most high-profile patient: Burt Reynolds. The 76-year-old actor is in a Florida intensive care unit after becoming dehydrated, reports CNN. A representative says he is doing better, however, and should be in a regular room soon. ("They are taking care of him and his mustache," he tells E! Online.) Nationwide, the CDC says flu cases are leveling off in most places, though they are still increasing in the West, reports AP. Meanwhile, a nasty stomach bug is spreading across the US, too.
