Oh, and there have been practically no flu cases this year. That seems pretty amazing, doesn't it?

I feel like we are living in Lalaland.
So......those people who test positive for what ever reason (example may be to return to work or begin work) they were tested but are asymptomatic are NOT counted in the numbers as a case? That is just wrong.
