..Over 80,000 Americans Died of Flu in 2018... 90 percent of those deaths were in people over age 65 (https://www.nytimes.com/2018/10/01/health/flu-deaths-vaccine.html) A four-week stretch saw the flu kill older Americans at a rate of 169 people a day, or seven people per hour. (https://www.aarp.org/health/conditions-treatments/info-2018/older-flu-deaths-rising.html)

If this stat is accurate, how many of those who have died from COVID-19 would have died in the past month if they had contracted this year’s seasonal flu? We have never shut down our economy for any reason before.

That’s interesting. In the cemetery in Texas where some of my family rests, there are many graves from 1918. Most show dates of birth/death indicating infants or toddlers.
