Flu Cases and Deaths by Year in the United States

According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention

Every day, Monday through Friday, I will try to post an update to the numbers at the bottom of the table. The CDC says their page will be updated regularly at noon, Mondays through Fridays, and that the numbers close out at 4 p.m. ET the day before reporting.

It is important that we keep things in Context and Perspective. Beware of Sensational reports using Anecdotal Evidence implying that the Coronavirus is an Angel of Death; absolutely every other strain of Flu can also be Sensationalized in the same manner, they’re just not.

Meanwhile, as the Nation’s attention has been solely focused on the Coronavirus since Jan. 12, 2020, here’s how the other strains of Flu have been ravaging our communities since Oct. 1, 2019. Please be mindful of the victims and their families of these other strains of Flu, because their suffering is being totally ignored by the News Media, as it was last year, and the year before that, and the year before that…
