**Please note for all dashboards that as of March 12, community samples are no longer being routinely tested for non-COVID respiratory pathogens including flu.
You'll see they don't have any test information for Influenza.
I may be misunderstanding this as it is hard to make sense how the governments statistics show no testing and that news article you mentioned with the chief medical officer for the province saying otherwise.
They never post how many tests were done on that dashboard, you can look at past years and see the same results. That data regarding testing doesn't doesn't seem available yet on the sites, but I see no real reason to doubt the CMO's claim, do you?
Well except for the link that I posted that specifically said : *Please note for all dashboards that as of March 12, community samples are no longer being routinely tested for non-COVID respiratory pathogens including flu.
And that they at least show non zero results for past years.
