What flu?
There have been 659,151 flu tests conducted in the US since September 27, 2020. Only 1,499 have been positive.
The tests are being done. Influenza has simply been unable to spread this year because of the conditions present. Why is that different from COVID-19? The basic reproductive number.
R0 for seasonal flu is 0.9-1.2
R0 for COVID-19 is 4.3-5.7 (UK/South Africa variants)

I don’t like the little bounce that just occurred.

“Only 1,499 have been positive.”
How many deaths? Compared to how many Flu deaths over the last, say, five years?
Why not report what’s NOT happening that in some fraction offsets COVID?
I had the flu last winter but waived off a test as I didn’t care which flavor it was, I just wanted some meds to attack the symptoms and more importantly not get pneumonia.
I’m unclear on how I might have gotten into any statistics.

You don't have to be John Maynard Keynes to see what is going on here. COVID pays. Influenza does not. Everything that can be called COVID is called COVID.

What bounce??
Deaths and hospitalizations DOWN.
Cases are a nothing burger. Everything under the sun is considered a pos covid case.

The little bounce was probably Texas coming on like from a week of severely limited testing

Nothing could be further from the truth. The influenza swans are negative. For you to suggest I falsely diagnose disease states with specific and sensitive tests for money would be a travesty.

I don’t like the little bounce that just occurred. I’m wondering if it’s a ‘Super Bowl’ party thing ...

What bounce?? You can see it in the nationwide "Daily Cases" and "Daily Deaths" graphs at the start of this thread. It's not much, but it's there.

It is suspect that the current big COVID wave started about election day.
It seems to be manipulated somehow to distract the masses and prevent an uprising against the rigged election.
