I said no such thing. Perhaps you are confusing my comment with someone else’s. I said we do not know the real number of deaths of influenza yearly because the death tallies the CDC gives for yearly flu are based on a mathematical model.
I found this out early in the COVID-19 outbreak because people kept comparing the two disease and I search to find out for myself.

You are correct. It was Tiredoftaxes who said what I attributed to you.
Sorry about that.
