Is this a mild flu season?

Wait a few months and then we'll talk.

record child deaths this flu season.

More children have died than any other flu season on record.

I’m surprised it is not bigger news.

I can wait but as it gets warmer I would think the heat would kill it.

As I understand it, warm weather does not reduce the symptoms or the likelihood of catching it.

yes just like last year

the current pace for flu deaths in Canada (2020) is suppose to be down the lowest in the past 5 years

according to this the U.S. averages between 27 thousand and 55 thousand flu deaths every year

with the lowest flu death year in the past 10 years being 2011 (approx. 12 thousand deaths)

and it looks like the current pace is about 70 thousand for 2020 (according to the current pace)

so thats higher then normal

We had the flu end of January. It was very mild for my family. Strangely mild, easier on the kids than adults. Fatigue was the worst part.

Supposedly the flu this year was a severe flu.
