You see stuff like this "flu cases down 98%" and then it brings to mind the articles and stuff I've seen lately claiming that these covid test kits are kicking back false positives for the seasonal flu.

I'm not a medical professional like some of you guys here are, but it sure seems to me like the seasonal flu virus is being absorbed into the Covid case numbers.

But I suppose that would be a crazy conspiracy theory. I mean, who would stand to gain from such a thing?

This is what some here want to believe. Even if you used last years YTD flu positives, we are talking about less than 400 cases. It doesnt account for the uptick.

I think what we do have to look out for is deaths. I dont believe you need a positive test to register a covid death. If the seasonal flu death rates plummet and covid deaths spike after we are well into flu season, then I'll start getting angry.
