Not sure how this worked in other countries but in the US hospitals got welfare checks for reporting covid cases. I'd bet any amount of money that if the welfare checks were twice as large for reporting flu cases, the reporting would be inverted. That's just how systems work.

it is commonly asserted this is because people stayed indoors. however, the covid infection rate contradicts this, as people stayed indoors and caught covid. this is usually justified by asserting the reproduction rate of covid was significantly higher than influenza. this is now contradicted by modern data where both influenza and covid are tracked.

the only conclusion to draw is that influenza infections were incorrectly flagged as covid infections. this is a testable hypothesis i just wrote, btw. influenza has an average infection number we can expect to see in those gap years. we can subtract this average from the covid data, and see whether this new covid data is smoother than the new covid data. i say this without having seen the data let alone analyzing it.

would someone who is familiar with this data if it has been done, or someone who has the raw data and would like to do this simple calculation be willing to test my hypothesis per the scientific method on /sci/? can't hurt to check, right? surely the cdc wouldn't do anything shady in regards to public perception on vaccines regarding covid

Interpretation: Sometime during the 2019-2020 pandemic period, when COVID-19 was novel and global public health agencies were crunching surveillance data, running models, and predicting trends to advise global policy making, I had a temp job doing manual entry stock counts at the overnight shift at a couple convenience stores my uncle owns.

It was winter break and I procrastinated my pre-semester prep by tabulating a month with of daily data into excel, fitting the data to an exponential, determining the reproduction rate all as a way to, in week 1, show my students an application of the exponential function. Told them if the WHO reports were off by even just a couple dozen on their (now known to be wrong) data of confirmed cases in the USA that we'd be fucked within a few months. I was right and my students started calling me Nostradamus. Highest reviews I've had since being a prof. You have no idea who you're dealing with.

If course the virus came from other infected people. They leave aerosols and dropplets containing the virus. People can come by 15-30 minutes later and become infected.

It is a known fact in the cruise industry that an Influenza A outbreak during a cruise will significantly increase the likelihood of an outbreak on the next cruise, even if none of the passengers or crew members are the same.
It is one of mankind's greatest mysteries as to why this happens. Some idiots on this board will tell you about little tiny demons that live in your spit and poop, but we all know that's madness.

Happy to, but wtf is your point? Your Hypothesis? Is it thst places can become "infected", because that it well-understood? Or am I missing something? How are you proposing that flu is transmitted?

The two hypothesis I quite like are:
-People haven't actually been washing their hands like they should. Not only in terms of frequency, but literally how to do it correctly.
-Covid-19 may have simply outcompeted other influenza viruses for land/food/resource. Granted, I'm not confident that viruses actually do that? I encourage somebody to correct me.

That enormous fucking spike the following years after the pandemic is insane though. That's wild, I hadn't heard about that at all. What the fuck.
