Care to explain why Flu cases dropped to almost nothing in the 2020-2021 flu season? And why they were only about 30% of normal in 2021-2022?

"According to the CDC, the estimated number of annual flu cases in the U.S. each year since 2016 is as follows:

29 million cases in 2016-2017
41 million cases in 2017-2018
29 million cases in 2018-2019
36 million cases in 2019-2020
9 million cases in 2021-2022

Estimates aren’t available for the 2020-2021 flu season due to minimal influenza activity."
As I said originally, if someone died WITH Covid but from something else, that would fail to explain the dramatic increase in the national death rate from ALL reasons that started in 2020. It was a large increase in the death rate and it impacted average life expectancy. Just look at the total number of US deaths from 2019 to 2020. The number of deaths from all reasons went up by 19%. That is so statistically significant that it cannot be written off as an anomaly. The trend continued in 2021 as well. This is irrefutable data, but I am not here to convince anyone of anything. I speak with actually data and I trust my doctors, all of whom have advised me to get the vaccine and are getting it themselves. I just hope folks talk about it with their doctors, not just listen to those who are not doctors. I think if folks found out they have cancer, or if they have a heart attack, they listen to their doctors to make treatment decisions, but for some reason, some make decisions about this without ever speaking with a medical professional.
