As far as I know, the model that initially had the crazed 1M to 2M total deaths already had some form of mitigation baked into it. If somebody knows otherwise, please let me know.

Right, that’s partially why I used the term “bad flu year” as even here in the semi-rural mid-South, at the peaks in those years it is not uncommon for some schools to close for a bit, there’s a renewed push for people to get vaccinated, and so on. A model that assumed “no reaction” as fatalities climbed rapidly would not be much of a model.
