So why isn't the more contagious pathogen going gangbusters?
If I'm throwing a dart, because it continued making the rounds for two years, prompting immunization responses, mutating, prompting more immunization responses, etc, etc. So infection rates became more generalized. But if the flu did in fact get heavily suppressed for two years, when it showed back up, it would make sense for it to show up with a vengeance.

And it increases the chances that the flu vaccine performs poorly as the basis to start is the prevalent strain(s) from the prior year
