re: Anyone know what the death rate from INFLUENZA was during the "COVID-19" pandemic years??

believe it was reported that hospitals said it was down something like 60% lower than normal, but it was rare to find details because they were hiding so much and putting out so much fake data.

No link, it's from memory, but I saw multiple stories that oddly never got any traction on doctors and researchers reporting that influenza numbers were down over 90% in the US, and the death rate from influenza was something like a 95% reduction from pre-corrvid years.

but INFLUENZA was way down by huge margins because everyone had on those stupid masks, so it wasnt spreading to everyone as it normally did.

Ear loop masks don't do shite for the prevention of inhalation of airborne influenza virus. It's about 4× the size of the Covid virus but still passes easily through the air (and the mesh of cloth masks) and can remain there for some time, not much heavier than aerosols. General hygiene such as hand washing and avoiding touching potentially contaminated surfaces as much as possible are actions that are far more effective at prevention of catching the flu.
