Probably also the fact that Covid wiped out much of the target demographic. In the US, a bad flu kills around 1K people per week during the winter. Covid killed 5K people per week even during the summer, for 2 years. If Covid deaths continue to drop, next winter might finally be comparable to that "just a bad flu". |

That, and how many unhealthy/vulnerable people just die on average week for no particular reason? Seems like at least some of those individuals should be cases of a flu/virus taking the credit for something that may have happened on its own regardless. Reminds me of these uncommon 'horror stories' of young people dying the first time they did a bump of cocaine - all of them had very serious underlying issues that they were unaware of to begin with.
