That is fine though every year there has always been “some” cases of influenza during the warmer seasons and it should be picking up today. Except for this year. No cases of influenza and it’s not picking up yet. I gave a link earlier. You can see for yourself

Thanks Steve. Using your link I ran the United States 2020
week 35-53 results. It turned up about 12 to 35 weekly, but I
don't know if that's thousands, tens of thousands, or
even single cases.

The notation on the Left must stand for thousands or tens
of thousands, but I see no notation to that effect. We
should be seeing more than a double digit count at this
time, but I don't follow the numbers each year to know if
we always see a large number of cases by now. We may not.

I had said that October/November should be the peak,
but I was wrong. While nosing around I found out it's
actually February.

Here's something I found by asking the following question.

"does influenza always hit by the end of october"

The answer was non-linkable directly, as it was a page. LINK

On that page I ran into this.

People also ask, "Is it possible to get the flu in October?"

Flu season typically runs from November through March,
although you can get it in October or as late as May. You
can catch the flu at other times of the year. But symptoms
outside of flu season are more likely to be from a cold or
an allergy. Flu tends to be much worse than a cold.
