Bring up the flu, people have hardened their views on the virus, attack from the rear. Ask them why Fauci wasn't calling for lock downs and masks in 2017-18.

From the CDC website: "The overall burden of influenza for the 2017-2018 season was an estimated 45 million influenza illnesses, 21 million influenza-associated medical visits, 810,000 influenza-related hospitalizations, and 61,000 influenza-associated deaths (Table: Estimated Influenza Disease Burden, by Season — United States, 2010-11 through 2017-18 Influenza Seasons)."

Yet based on the same CDC, in July the CDC quietly updated the Covid number to admit that only 6% of all the 153,504 deaths recorded by that time actually died from Covid and that ALL of those 6% deaths were among the frail and extremely elderly. That's 9,210 deaths

The other 94% had 2-3 other serious illnesses and the overwhelming majority of these were of very advanced age.

So 61,000 from the flu, no masks, no panic. Yet nine thousand deaths ALL among the frail and elderly, PANIC.

It was always and only about control.
