"In other words, are CV19 statistics basically indistinguishable from the seasonable flu that we’ve learned to ignore?"

Good question, but the answer is no. Annual flu causes an average of 36,000 deaths per year in the US. In 2020, overall deaths (forget about what cause - just the total number - to avoid any questions about whether something was categorized correctly; dead is dead) rose by 18% over 2019. A normal year-over-year increase is 0.3% - 0.7%. From 2018 to 2019, total deaths rose 0.5%. But in 2020, they jumped 18%. Over 530,000 new unexpected deaths out of the blue, with a bunch of unexpected deaths appearing in March and April, particularly in New York and New Jersey.

So on the one hand, you have normal flu deaths at 36,000 total in a year, and on the other hand you have 530,000 extra deaths in 2020. The two just don't line up at all.

"Good question, but the answer is no."

Respectfully 2aProtectsTheRest, how many people were regularly taking vitamins C, D3, also zinc dietary supplements before time of CV19 for example? Use of these relatively inexpensive dietary supplement would probably have made seasonal flu more bearable for many people imo.

Also, desparate Democrats have allegedly weaponized CV19 for political gain, the dust far from settled if that is the case, the facts hopefully revealed in hindsight.
