I don't know the answer, but when people get the flu (influenza) the doctors typically give you a set of drugs designed to cure it. Prior to WWII, the flu killed a lot of people every year, because the drugs were not there. When you get COVID, the doctors tell us to do nothing until we have to go to the hospital. ERGO, how many people died of the flu, because they were diagnosed as having COVID and were withheld the proper flu drugs?
As we see here all-too-frequently, a valid question elicits no response.
