get_state_data.RdUses the data source from the CDC' State-levelFluView
https://gis.cdc.gov/grasp/fluview/main.html and provides state flu
reporting data as a single data frame.
This function provides similar data to get_weekly_flu_report but
provides more metadata about the reporting sources and has access to more
historical infomation.

|---|
A data.frame of state-level data for the specified seasons
(also classed as cdcstatedata)
There is often a noticeable delay when making the API request to the CDC. This
is not due to a large download size, but the time it takes for their
servers to crunch the data. Wrap the function call in httr::with_verbose
if you would like to see what's going on.
