Scientists Predict Next Flu Season Could Be Nasty

The CDC says that the flu numbers in the U.S. have plummeted 98% this year. The reasons for the dramatic decline include fewer people traveling, more people wearing masks, and social distancing, along with more Americans getting the flu shot, according to reports. More adults got the flu shot in 2020 compared to the previous year, says Healthline. But although flu activity is currently low, experts warn we could still see an uptick in cases in 2021.

What a bunch of BS. Flu was reported as Covid. Hospitals are rewarded by the Feds for reporting Covid numbers.

So masks failed to stop the spread of Covid but reduced the flu by 38 million cases, leaving only one or two thousand flu cases last year? What a joke!

The PCR test does not identify Covid-19 - it tests postive on fruit, goats, and Coca Cola.

Most of last year’s Covid-19 was flu.

Given the way they are pushing the Covid vax, I no longer take an interest in the flu vax.

Let’s not outsource our immune systems to China and pharma.

Fauci needs to get a real job.

It’s common knowledge that we simply didn’t catch the flu for obvious reasons. The viruses didn’t get very far before getting weak. Most of the viral loads fell on shirts, shoes and floors.

As a nation, we’re getting vaccinated enough to defeat the Democrats’ mail-in voting fraud.

COVID-19 is more contagious than the flu. Time is on our side for getting the vast majority of Americans vaccinated. We’re going to defeat Democrat mail-in voting fraud, and we have another year and a half to do it. Their will be no more excuse for mail-in vote fraud. That’s why Biden and his biddies spoke against President Trump’s Operation Warp Speed before giving in and trying to take credit for it. They knew that it would smother further attempts to cheat elections.

Oh c’mon. You just make stuff up on the fly.

The flu numbers were reported with pnemonia and Covid-19, all togther to make a bigger Covid haul.

You’re getting desparate with the voting schtick. Some medical agencies who actually get a word past the censors are saying more than half of new Covid cases are among the vaccinated.
*smh* Did Krispy Kreme donuts fail to bring in enough vax numbers so now you’re waving ballots?

The precedent having been set, it will be rolling lock-downs from now on, with occasional let ups from time to time.

Correct. I hope and pray America will wake up and be given the eyes to see the corruption found everywhere in America- especially our Government and all of its agencies. Big money has bought every sector of society, and immoral leftists have taken over our country’s MSM, institutions, schools and more. There is something very sinister, evil, and corrupted with the Covid flu, jabs, shut downs, face diapers, etc....NOTHING Covid related adds up.

They expect half of Americans to believe this. I try to explain this to myself knowing that 50% of Americans have below average IQ’s. I really think it is more like 70%. (That’s a joke, I’m not included in either of those percentages.)

The next flu season will only be nasty if the communists and media decide to make it the focus....if they need the distraction from something else.

Otherwise, they will ignore the tens of thousands of flu deaths like they do every year.

Maybe they will hype shark attacks again because there are so few of those taking place again.

See my tagline
