A lot of things seem to have simply gone away.
The flu numbers are always vague estimates, it's probable that majority of people with the flu don't get tested, you know it when you got it. Reported flu tests are done in clinical settings, on the most vulnerable. The rest is a guess

Flu is thought to be seasonal but never totally goes away, interesting that covid appears to be increasing in June. Is it the amount of testing? Perhaps if we did the amount of testing for flu that we are doing for covid we would find even more people who are sick and don't know it.
