If the 'rona killed off the flu, wouldn't a fair assessment of the death statistics of the 'rona take into account the average death rate on a yearly basis from the flu to give some context to how bad the 'rona was.
Of course, we will never know how bad if 2020 would have been a not so bad, average, or bad flu year.

What I have yet to see is a good explanation for why countries like Korea, Japan, and Taiwan avoided COVID.
The theory for a time was it was all about masks, but then the rest of the world started wearing them and it didn’t make much of a difference.

COVID cured the flu but caused people to die in auto accidents, be murdered, fatal stokes, heart attacks, commit suicide, etc.

The majority of “COVID deaths” were actually caused by the flu. The flu did not disappear and anyone that thinks it did is a goddamn idiot.

the average death rate on a yearly basis from the fluThe problem is, for years, CDC exaggerated the death rate for the flu.
Maybe they stopped exaggerating the flu death rate in 2020.

Renaming every illness and death covid, did not get rid of the flu.

The Branch Covidians or Covid Cultist Society members will do whatever their false propfet Fauci tells them to do. Facts be damned.
