The final national data on flu season is released annually in April by the CDC .
Between October 1, 2019 and April 4, 2020, the flu resulted in:
39 to 56 million illnesses
410,000 to 740,000 hospitalizations
24,000 to 62,000 deaths
195 pediatric deaths
Between October 1, 2020 and April 1, 2021, the flu resulted in:
1,675 illnesses
224 hospitalizations
Unknown number of deaths
One pediatric death
The CDC outlines possible reasons for the lower numbers and unavailable data in its 2020-2021 flu season summary.
Still Not buying it. Covid cases were most certainly embellished with regular flu cases. However maybe not everyone who got sick reported it for fear of it being labeled Covid. There are many reasons why cases would go unreported when people have nutty reactions to the sick.
