Social distancing and mask wearing has probably reduced the number of cases.

In 2019 the US had 38 million cases of flu. By 2020 it had gone down to something like 1500 cases.

One disease was literally wiped off the face of the planet, and magically replaced by another which was very similar.

Where did you get those figures from?

Mask wearing, working from home, better hygeine all contributed to less flu cases

Social distancing and the fact that those who knowingly got flu (old or inform people) were isolating anyway. It’ll be back.

so the covid restrictions were effective in combating the flu but were not so effective in combating covid ? All rather strange I must say. It’s as if the flu was rebadged as covid.

"Social distancing and mask wearing has probably reduced the number of cases.so the covid restrictions were effective in combating the flu but were not so effective in combating covid ? All rather strange I must say. It’s as if the flu was rebadged as covid."

The influenza virus is substantially less infectious than the current Omicron variant of COVID, and still less infectious than the original Alpha variant of COVID. Social distancing, home working, reduced indoor mixing, masks and enhanced cleaning/hygiene have significantly impacted on the exceptionally infectious COVID, so of course, these measures will have an even greater impact on influenza.

Please remember infectiousness is not the same as lethality. Rhinoviruses are exceptionally infectious but almost never fatal (there are the most common viruses that cause colds).

It has not disappeared it’s just not being reported because the focus is all on Covid

It's less infectious than Covid and the management strategies to reduce Covid unsurprisingly also reduce flu infections. Easy, really

Don't worry, it's still around and will make an appearance in a work colleague very soon.

Give it a few weeks after face masks, social distancing and the real inconvenience of washing hands has gone and there will be sick notes galore.
