Did those influenza cases completely overwhelm the hospital and healthcare system? NO!
The “flu death rate” is a completely irrelevant argument that has absolutely NOTHING to do with the issue at hand. You could pull up those same stats for Italy and other countries on the flu - that doesn’t matter a hill of beans to what coronavirus is doing one way or the other as it did not cause these issues the coronavirus obviously is causing in those countries putting their healthcare system on the brink of collapse and the seasonal flu did NOT cause.
exactly republican - look at the situation in Italy. They also said “What me, worry?” 10 days ago. And look at them now.
