No it isn’t. The flu doesn’t have the potential to kill millions of Americans in a season without preventive measures
To be fair its killed alot more then 9/11, that was one attack with a viable enemy. The war on terror has also cost us trillions. Were still fighting 9/11 over 15 years later
Isn’t it? The numbers pretty well match a flu season so far.
We haven’t taken preventative measures.
Is there a vaccine for COVID-19?
@JayJay posted an article by a woman with some expertise that supports the idea this shutdown was a mistake.
Is there one that works for flu?
Great point.
If there wasn’t a flu shot the flu would be much worse than this virus.
Solution was the wrong word on my part.
So that’s a no, for a COVID vaccine.
Thanks for playing.
Lol, for now and in a much shorter timespan.
Without being too pedantic it wouldn’t be the first woman president; it would be the first woman president of the USA.
By that logic, we can take the final tally for China Flu and subtract 23% at best and we’ll know. Of course we’ll have to assume everyone who got the flu shot lived, I’m ok with that.
Not that much shorter.
CDC is estimating between Oct 4- Apr 20, 24k-62k deaths to the flu.
Covid started later but will run later. Pretty much a wash.
What’s a china flu?
2.5 Million Americans die every year for a variety of reasons and covid19 will add thousands more just like influenza & pneumonia does but it will certainly not double the national death rate. Good grief! 
The social distancing measures enacted by the state governors has been credited for potentially saving millions

Can you show where a bad flu season has stressed our medical industry like this virus has?

You’re practically a communist then
It hasn’t prevented a single case. Delay and prevent are not synonyms.
