San Antonio Congressman Joaquin Castro confirmed the spike in cases in a social media post.
He also said one recruit from the 37th Training Wing died this week from a medical emergency, but it's not clear at this time if that was directly related to the flu.
Military medical personnel are isolating and treating trainees who show symptoms and monitoring those who may have been exposed.
Two months ago, Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth ended mandatory influenza vaccinations for military personnel.
Castro was calling that decision reckless and has requested a full investigation into the outbreak and the trainee's death.

The latest confirmed case of the New World screwworm is in a sheep in Sutton County, 135 miles northwest of San Antonio.
The tracking of the flesh-eating parasite shows it has moved beyond the Texas-Mexico border zone and into the Texas Hill Country.
The screw worm is a parasitic fly that attacks cattle, sheep, goats, wildlife, pets, and rarely people.
A screw worm fly lays hundreds of eggs in an open wound or body opening such as a nose in a living, warm-blooded animal.
The rapid infestation can be deadly.
Livestock owners are being urged to inspect animals regularly and immediately report a suspected infestation to a veterinarian.
Screwworm poses a potentially devastating threat to the cattle industry.
