CDC said 28,000 flu deaths for 2018, so

[Guest]

I searched for found the CDC said at: https://www.cdc.gov/flu/about/burden/2018-2019.html

""The overall burden of influenza (flu) for the 2018-2019 season was an estimated 29 million flu illnesses, 13 million flu-related medical visits, 380,000 flu-related hospitalizations, and 28,000 flu deaths (Table 1).""


Fauci said one thing which was silly, , Now the BBC are saying there have been 800,000 covid deaths here---which is totally insane fear mongering!!!
https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-59645307Covid-19: US surpasses 800,000 pandemic deaths - BBC News
Dec 15, 2021 ... Covid-19: US surpasses 800,000 pandemic deaths · More than 800,000 Americans have now died from the coronavirus, the highest recorded national ...

Actually, the annual death rate here per year seems about the same... so the flu or covid, whatever killed sick people who would have died of dozzens of other causes... Still a sad loss of course... However we see how far from truth the Govt has gone...

CDC on the 2019-2021 flu... they gave no numbers said ((((Do they REALLY expect us to believe this??? ))) https://www.cdc.gov/flu/season/faq-f...-2020-2021.htm
"Summary

What was the 2020-2021 flu season like?


Flu activity was unusually low throughout the 2020-2021 flu season both in the United States and globally, despite high levels of testing. During September 28, 2020–May 22, 2021 in the United States, 1,675 (0.2%) of 818,939 respiratory specimens tested by U.S. clinical laboratories were positive for an influenza virus. The low level of flu activity during this past season contributed to dramatically fewer flu illnesses, hospitalizations, and deaths compared with previous flu seasons. For comparison, during the last three seasons before the pandemic, the proportion of respiratory specimens testing positive for influenza peaked between 26.2% and 30.3%. In terms of hospitalizations, the cumulative rate of laboratory-confirmed influenza-associated hospitalizations in the 2020-2021 season was the lowest recorded since this type of data collection began in 2005. For pediatric deaths, CDC received one report of a pediatric flu death in a child during the 2020–2021 flu season. Since flu deaths in children became nationally notifiable in 2004, reported flu deaths in children had previously ranged from a low of 37 (during 2011-2012) to a high of 199 (during 2019-2020).
What are possible explanations for the unusually low flu activity?


COVID-19 mitigation measures such as wearing face masks, staying home, hand washing, school closures, reduced travel, increased ventilation of indoor spaces, and physical distancing, likely contributed to the decline in 2020-2021 flu incidence, hospitalizations and deaths. Influenza vaccination may also contributed to reduced flu illness during the 2020–2021 season. Flu vaccine effectiveness estimates for 2020-2021 are not available, but a record number of influenza vaccine doses (193.8 million doses) were distributed in the U.S. during 2020-2021.

I had to redo the first report as fauci was misquoted...He did say a couple months ago that there would be 100,000 more covid deaths by Christmas!!! how come that was not widely reported when that was obviously a lie???
however his numbers were no where near the fearmongering the BBC is putting out!! Outrageous...

""Covid 19 will become just another cause of the common cold
People testing positive should be allowed to go about their lives""

Such viruses always mutate into variants
