I’ll forward your inquiry to Dr. Fauci for an authoritative answer. LOL.

Why don’t you provide something solid?

It’s a good question. But you fail in providing any information.

I think the biggest concern was and is this CV19 is much more contagious than the Flu and affects oxygen levels in the blood so much more and especially in us Geezers.

Me I havent worn a mask till the Dermo last weeks they required it.

I dont think the people will tolerate what the mayors and governors shoved down their throats these past months if this crap spikes up.

Is just going to be a new part of life.

All US deaths this year are covid. Including car accidents, suicides, heart attacks, cancer, strokes, tetanus, old age and getting run over by a bus and/or an Uber.

The seasonal flu has been around a very long time - we have a functional herd immunity from it by being exposed to this kind of virus for a long time and we have a vaccine for it that a significant amount of the population gets every year. We also know how to treat it. The seasonal flu never typically causes the rate of hospitalizations COVID19 was causing as it first started spreading and we had no prior exposure or immunity to it nor vaccine (not to mention many states failed to have enough equipment on hand to be able to handle a major outbreak of any disease and we needed time to replenish this). They are not really comparable. That said, since the initial outbreak, we have learned a lot about it and how to successfully treat it...which is why the danger from it has been declining in many places. We will eventually achieve this same herd immunity.

That’s the difference. That does not mean some policy makers have not used this situation to implement policies that were not necessary, or if they were, kept them in place far longer than necessary. As we know, the Left lies about stuff that is true and uses it for other purposes.

And other

Let’s see how many are missing from ALL OTHER CAUSES than the Kung-Flu.

The Covid-19 Death figures are highly inflated by omitting the real cause of deaths by other conditions.

None.

All deaths have been caused by Kung Flu this year.

It’s the only thing people are dying of.

"Seasonal flu is causing many more deaths than COVID-19"

Mayo Clinic report from March, 2020.

It’s a farce because the numbers are only estimates. That’s all they are.

They are vastly overestimated. Just ask you doctor how many patients he’s lost to flu this year. Then ask over his career.

Don’t be shocked when he tells you it’s zero for both.

The guy who was shot in Seattle’s CHOP died of COVID too (not to far from the truth in how WA state counts)

George Washington died of COVID. But who cares? He was an old white slave owner.

And, how many of the regular flu deaths were mislabeled COVID19 for political purposes?

It’s truly a miracle! Not a single person has died from the regular flu in 2020.

Typically, around 55,000 Americans die every year from seasonal flu.

Stopping right there. Nope, that's not true.

Pneumonia is the bigger killer
And there is a vaccine for it
https://www.cdc.gov/nchs/nvss/vsrr/covid19/index.htm

I noticed since the last time I checked this, the CDC is now combining all pneumonia and covid, they used to be separated by covid, covid with pneumonia and, pneumonia ..pneumonia alone was generally higher after the covid peak
