Hospitals hit capacity during flu season all the time.

Did you stay at home, keep your kids from school and cancel all travel plans last flu season when hospitals got overwhelmed?

You probably didn’t even know they were overwhelmed, did you?

Last flu season a bunch of my family friends did not die from flu, nor did any relative suffer long term consequences from flu.

My coworker from 5 years back died yesterday. He is 2 years younger than me. I am not even 40.

So it doesn't affect you so those tens of thousands dead from the flu don't matter?

Not sure what your point is?

Straw man argument.
How is it a straw man, when it pretty much repeating what you said?
You're talking about consequences of regular flu. I'm talking about consequences of covid.
