    Well, it’s either because people are wearing masks and masks work.

    Or

    It’s a worldwide conspiracy, faking Covid when it’s just the flu, to destroy freedom by having people wear a piece of cloth on their face sometimes.

    False dichotomy POTD

    Kobe, wear your mask in the winter. Why doesn’t the government come out and eradicate the flu by closing schools in the winter and mandate masks from November to March.

    Did you your mask the last 10 years?

    Like bad weather, insane liberals like Kobe believe the common cold and the flu and now even death can be eradicated. You fucking morons don't understand you can't actually change the weather or stop death. Being forced to wear a mask and drink through paper straws is about money and government control but keep telling yourself the sky is green.
    Imagine calling someone a moron when you don’t know the difference between weather and climate.
    Kobe doing the thing he always does which is ignore the direct responses to his asinine post and instead focus on nuance that has no bearing whatsoever on the actual conversation he started.
    I usually just ignore the dumbest responses.
    Your definition of dumb responses seems to line up with responses that require you to defend your bullshit.
    BINGO!!!!

    I’ve been saying for months that the absence of the flu is interesting and if we were replacing flu and COVID with other terms it’d be a logical conclusion to look at the effects of substitution

    As we eventually return to normal, will be interesting to see if the flu continues to be largely eradicated

    I predict that the 2021 (flu) season is going to be special
    It probably will be.

    Flu shots are developed each year depending on the prevalence of the strains seen in the previous years so with very little activity this year, there is a greater chance the next cycle of flu shots will be less protective of whatever strains circulate.

    Though there has been little activity of flu this year, it doesn't mean that it's gone. Flu has well documented animal reservoirs with frequent human contact (swine and foul), so it might come back strong next year depending on human behavior and international travel.
