The lab has run 20,000 flu tests—10 times as many as it processed the season before—and zero have come back positive.

Is it possible that the coronavirus test is picking up things that are a tiny bit of the flu? There’s no way that there have been zero confirmed cases of the flu. Maybe the test for the flu requires a massive amount of it in order to come back positive. What if they use 40 cycles (amplifications) to test for coronavirus but only 20 to test for the flu. That would explain a lot.

Statistically impossible.

Someone is fudging the numbers.

All the COVID-19 shutdowns and prevention measures worked on the flu, even if it only marginally worked on COVID.

There is something positive to say about the pandemic:

Flu cases are down everywhere. That’s a good thing. What, exactly, is the benefit in denying the seriousness of Covid at this point? Covid is incredibly dangerous and we should not be opening up like its business as usual. We need to remain vigilant.

The only “logical” conclusion is that masks and social distancing have performed miracles in ridding the world of influenza. Unfortunately, masks and social distancing just aren’t that effective in preventing coronavirus.

Ridiculous.

How resolute are the tests? Both are classified as corona virus’.

Is it possible that covid got hold of corona A & B and mutated them into covid? I suppose so. Is it probable? Not a clue.

Covid is a LIE, it is a HOAX, it is the FLU!!!!!!!

What happened to “flu season?” In the age of COVID, “the flu” has been reclassified as coronavirus, says epidemiologist

It’s somewhat hard to catch the flu when wearing a mask and keeping your distance from other shoppers.

Not to mention fewer people flying back and forth to and from China.

I did catch a couple of mild colds early last year. At least some colds are more contagious than flus. Looks like we cut the flus off for the most part somewhere between here and the other side of the planet.
