One FLU Over the Cuckoos Nest

"Influenza, usually raging throughout the Northern Hemisphere this time of year, has become virtually invisible.

It is a small bright spot amid Covid-19, although the number of people saved from a flu death pales next to the number dying from the new pandemic. It also presents questions that doctors around the globe will likely be wrestling with for years: If flu can be nearly wiped out this season, why not every season? Which steps help the most to stop the flu from spreading?

“This is an extremely puzzling phenomenon. We’re in a historic, unbelievable situation,” said Norio Sugaya, a pediatrician who serves on a World Health Organization influenza committee.

The WHO says the measures people and governments are taking to prevent the spread of Covid-19, such as wearing masks and limiting public gatherings, have probably helped keep the flu in check. Increased flu vaccination rates may also be contributing, it says."

Any pneumonia about ,that usually takes out about 40 k a year ,seems not to be getting too many mentions of late .

Flu and Pneumonia Deaths per hundred thousand ENGLAND


2014    231.36   
2015    265.70   
2016    236.59   
2017    237.68   
2018    247.13   
2019    217.01   

Lets times that by 10 so say 2400 per milion , Lets times that by 50 we could use higher figures but wont,  so Looking at that we have 120,000 Deaths from flu or Pneumonia every year
that appear to have not happened ,it Must be the Lockdown so surely we should lock down for
3 months every year to stop these deaths ,but we don't ,WHY NOT ?

Do the the hospitals not get over crowded with the above annual cases ? Or do people Just pass
away at home or in their care home beds ?

WHY IS THERE A LOCKDOWN FOR CO VID AND NONE FOR FLU AND PNEUMONIA ?

The figures are for those aged 65 plus

Wheres 1tp and the team to Explain why 100,000 plus deaths per year from F or P are acceptable ?

away at home or in their care home beds ?2013/4 and 2017/8 were the bad flu seasons. 28500 and 26500 deaths respectively in England. Yes the hospitals were mobbed, especially in 2017/18. If th e
pictures had been on the telly there would be the hysteria we are having now. I have said from the start that if we give in to this lockdown policy (which we have) it will be used again and again. Its a lot cheaper than investing in the NHS and hides the abysmal management in the NHS.

Covid 19 ingests the influenza virus before it becomes established.

even if that were true it would mean everyone with flu would have to have covid as well?

Giuseppe- I think you misunderstand my posting. The nasty Covid is lurking around. As soon as the flu virus appears, Covid ingests the flu virus before the flu virus can do any damage. Your logic is illogical. This very point is mentioned in the German magazine Scheissen Scientifican Gervirologigassen for medical scientists.

that sounds like a pretty **** magazine if that is what they're saying
