I am sure this had nothing to do with it...
According to data released by the CDC earlier this month, influenza mortality rates were significantly lower throughout 2020 than previous years.
There were 646 deaths relating to the flu among adults reported in 2020, whereas in 2019 the CDC estimated that between 24,000 and 62,000 people died from influenza-related illnesses.
They literally tried to spin how hundreds of thousands of yearly flu cases magically disappeared and didn't occur in 2020 as: "oh, everyone wearing masks and social distancing really stopped people from catching the flu!"
Really? Eradicating the flu was THAT easy? We just had to get everyone to re-use and improperly wear cloth masks and makeshift fabric t-shirts over their faces and the flu just disappeared? The same flu that yearly vaccination could only somewhat control LOL?
And people actually eat this shite up with a smile on their face. Literally zero appetite to question anything. Not one person has seemingly explained how as soon as COVID appeared, all of a sudden not only did virtually no one die from the flu, but in fact seemingly everyone somehow became IMMUNE to the flu .

Sorry, some of that is probably true.
And it doesn't take a medical expert to realize that the flue could have been low last year bc: 1. We were being forced to be 'stay in place', and not allowed to leave. 2. that most establishments(restaurants, bars, schools, etc) were either closed or limited, which is common sense for ways to limit the flu season since no one is out and about in most places where a lot of people congregate.
I guess, my question is, what's wrong with having a low flu season anyway?
