WASHINGTON — Lockdowns and protective measures like the widespread wearing of face masks as a result of the coronavirus pandemic have driven influenza infections to record lows, according to a new Centers for Disease Control and Prevention study.
The authors of the study urge such measures to remain in place in order to keep the flu from returning, as it customarily does with colder weather, which will soon drive people indoors across much of the U.S. “If extensive community mitigation measures continue throughout the fall, influenza activity in the United States might remain low and the season might be blunted or delayed,” the researchers write in their new study.
The study is being published on Thursday in the CDC’s Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report, a digest of the latest findings from the agency. The study looked at flu infections in the U.S. from late 2019, when the flu season began, to early 2020, when lockdowns began across the country in response to the coronavirus.

this doesnt surprise me but it sems a little early. I thought flu season was more in october and beyond.
-
If masks are so effective, I guess nobody needs flu shots this year! /s
I would be interested to see what the flu numbers turn out to be for this year, if I had more faith in the reporting.
-
We are all getting our flu shots, no need on being one of the few people who get the flu. The flu prevention and covid prevention steps are pretty much the same. Although the people I have seen with the flu in the past do not seem to be nearly as sick as the one with covid. So of the ones with covid are still having problems weeks after getting over it. Our friends son told his Dad on the phone he was sorry and mad because he thought it was just a hoax. He died later that night with no other health issues and alone. Lets hope that the flu is at a record low this year and that this covid thing also runs it course.

LOLOLOLOL It is not flu season yet. ::) How foolish can people be? And the flu will be non-existent this year because everything will be called covid. I have family in the medical field. If you go to the doctor with a runny nose it is auto a covid suspect. ::) It is ridiculous. And it has nothing to do with the covering your face. But feel free to keep doing that.

Exactly. But they are already saying a flu shot is more important than ever this year. ::) You are right - if a mask works then nobody needs a flu shot or this new stupid vaccine they are trying to shove down our throat. The majority of people I have talked to said they won't get it. The ones that do want it seem to be mad but I don't get that either. If you get your precious vaccine then you are safe. Don't worry about me!

I am so sick of hearing oh I thought it was a hoax and I honestly don't believe that. Nobody ever said the virus was a hoax. The virus is real. Just like the flu. The media fear monger hype surrounding it is what people say is a hoax. The CDC released data saying the numbers were basically fabricated. Only a little over 9000 people died from Covid and had no other health issues. If you are morbidly obese the flu is more likely to kill you. If you have breathing issues or other health problems the flu is more likely to kill you. It is no different. It seems funny you say you hope covid just runs it's course. This has been going on since March. Overall you are right though it will run it's course. It will all go away in November.
If you are going to get this then you will. It is the same with the flu. It does not matter if you believe it is real or not.
You can only do so much. And wearing a mask is foolish. Watch people with a mask on. They constantly fondle, handle, and pull and touch the mask. The mask is worthless.

i will be glad when people accept this as a new flu strain..we have one every year.not saying it isnt real..but with the election they are making it ore than it is

I like your posts countrygirl12. They're so colorful. You just don't hold back; nor should you.
I don't wear a mask unless forced to do so. And I endure the looks I get from people who think I'm B-l-o-o-d-y Mary. I'm not really. No, really. I'm just exercising my constitutional right to NOT wear a mask since everything I read tells me that it is an exercise in futility. ::) I fully support your right to wear a mask if it makes you feel better. I think you're nutty to do so, but that won't hurt you if I don't say anything to you or look at you funny.
I still wish we could treat this type of flu like other epidemics and pandemics in the past. Exercise caution, restraint and protect yourself, but don't go crazy with fear and worry. Just don't do it! :turkey:
I do stand on the social distancing circles silently thinking about how stupid it is to do so because I guess there's no harm, no foul there. It's just dumb; that's all. :silly:
My strong hope is that this will end and we'll not have to go through the rest of our lives wearing masks, social distancing and not touching anyone ever. I like touching people and being touched. It's a nice part of our humanity. So is actually seeing other people's faces and smiling at them and talking to them. Oh, how controversial all that is now. Heartbreaking. :'(

So why dont you give CG a thank you?She has been stuck on 424 for quite some time now.Shows NOT many listening to her BS.
She says dont worry about her.Being stuck on 424 proves NOT many are......yet she still rattles on and on RE the mask.
Shes the type if she was about to be buried 10 ft under cos of the virus she still wouldnt admit she caught it.
Im pretty sure her place of WOEship has been congregating.A sure place for disaster and instructions from God a no no.
If FC was smart they should deduct $$$ from CG for every post she writes.
OH,and in my state there are rulz RE wearing the mask.Im not sure whats going on in other states.Maybe thats why NY is in better shape then others are now.
Lets hear from those on FC that are against it what state they are in so we can compare the stats how your state is doing.
And even if your state is doing bad im sure they will come out and say the authorities are BSing.
I know one thing.The TRUE God has instructed us what to do and he backs it up feeding his people spiritually respecting the virus still.

Nope. I don't do the coddle thing. haha Most people in my area are not wearing a mask. You see more and more not wearing them. And the ones forced to (employees) are wearing them around their chin. If you want to wear one then do so. If you don't then don't. I don't go to town often and I don't have to wear one while working. But more and more are bucking the "mask rule". Our state never had a mandate. Some counties have had them but ours did not. I don't know if people ignored it in the counties that did have one. I did notice today that our Walmart has taken down the signs off the doors that say a mask is required. I would say about half or more of the people were not wearing them. People only wore them maybe 2-3 weeks. Once a few were allowed to continue to shop with no mask more and more followed suit. The mask is stupid and it is not going to keep you from getting a virus that will just go right through the mask.

Makes sense if you are sick to wear a mask so others don't get what you have. I think the flu season won't be as bad because most people are wearing masks now. People in Asia have done it forever why the hell people are so opposed to do it here?

It makes sense that if you are sick you stay at home. The mask is not going to stop the flu any more than cov.
I was not aware that everyone in Asia covered their face every time they went out in public. If you want to wear a mask then by all means do so. But don't expect every one else to bow to the left. The only reason the "flu" cases will be less this year is because EVERYTHING will be called cov instead.
My question is why the h*ll so many idiots are so willing to give up freedoms and be controlled? ::)

Interesting study though lots of possible reasons for that data ....more people scared of coronavirus led us to be more careful, could be misdiagnosis too, more people getting flu shot
-
We need to be wary of strongly worded opinions. A forceful opinion doesn't make it the truth.
-
It will be a welcomed change to have less flu cases this year. I heard that it in itself is an awful thing to go through. Thank God I have never had to go through it and I pray that it will not come my way. I guess I will wear my mask as a precaution.
-

lol Everybody's opinion is strongly worded. And just that their opinion. Including the ever changing touts from the CDC.
It's funny though because the maskers get all mad and want to force their views on the ones who do not wear a mask and get mad when the ones not wearing a mask say they do absolutely no good. They are too stupid to see they are doing the same thing they accuse the other side of doing.
And FYI - I know someone, just found out today, that has worn a mask every day since early March and this person has covid. So that is how much good your mask will do. She wore a mask and she got it anyway.
-
The gloom and doom of this planet is because Adam and Eve didnt obey God to begin with.
Soon Gods kingdom will fix ALL the problems on earth.
In the meantime the worldwide preaching work is on hold cos of this virus.That should tell us all how serious God takes this for the safety of his people.
Lesson?To obey God,and right now the rules are wearing a mask when around people.....social distancing and staying home more until this virus is under control.

I have only one time got a flu shot. Not that interested in getting one.

We are all getting our flu shots, no need on being one of the few people who get the flu. The flu prevention and covid prevention steps are pretty much the same.

Wrong once again! I heard the president, with my own ears, call the virus a hoax and most scientists and medical doctors are saying that one of the surest means to help contain the disease, hence open schools and the economy, is to wear a mask and use the other tools to manage the virus. Interesting that people nowadays can't follow simple procedures for the general public good. but when you read what was given up during WWII it is a mere pittance!

I AM NOT WRONG! He did not call the virus a hoax. He called the fear monger the media was pushing a hoax. But you will believe what you want. And you gonna believe what ever the dumorats shove out there so there ya go.
I will say it again, if you want to wear a mask then do so. But shut up on telling everyone else what they need to do. If you wear your precious mask you are safe. Just like if you run get the vaccine you are safe. So don't worry about what I or anybody else does. Funny thing is nobody in my area is wearing mask. Things are open. Everybody goes where ever they want. And our numbers keep going DOWN.

LOL scroll up a few posts FC members and read CG said someone in her state <Mars?>had the mask on and got the virus...then she brags how PURE her area is!!!LOL!!
What a dunce!!!
Please also note FC members,CG will not say what state she is in or what religeon she is for fear of exposing her lying ways and her Babylonish WOEship!!
She has admitted there are services with her WOEship and i know for a fact there will be outbreaks of the virus from that.
I am proud to say I belong to JWs and listen to instruction RE the virus and they have shutdown for months now....But their work is still carried out online etc.They also support when to wear masks and social distance.
-
I don't take vaccine/flu shots. Don't like needles.
-
I don 't agree with countrygirl12. People should not assume that only one type of people will get sick and die. Remember when initially they said the virus will only affect senior citizens. That was a lie . Now you are saying that people who are obese is a part of those catching the virus. Another lie. Anybody can get this virus as it's been proven already.

I never said that only one type of anything would get sick or die. NEVER. I have a troll that likes to tell you what I said or think. Just showing his ignorance. ::)
No I never saw where it was said that only senior citizens would get this. The CDC and WHO have done nothing but lie from the start. You just admitted that but still want to believe certain things they say. Things they have said multiple ways.
Yes anybody can get it. Just like ANYBODY can get the flu. I have never took a flu shot and never had the flu.
People need to learn to comprehend what is being said. Maybe listen with full interest? Then you would likely still miss it. Nobody said being fat would make you more likely to catch the virus. Being over weight makes you more likely to have complications. Being over weight makes you more likely to have complications with the flu as well. And everything else. Less than 10,000 people have died in the US that had covid that did not have other major health problems. If you had stage 4 cancer and was already on your death bed then you died from cancer not cov. ::)

I know MOST of you dont need a reminder from me that CG is full of donkey dust.BUT....please note how she says in this post the virus will go away in Nov.
Thats only the tip of the iceberg.
Then she has said many times how i lie RE her posts.Tsk tsk.Plain as day here.
Ponder this,how ill she is getting caught with the goods and still denying it.
I dont feel like typing,but i can tell you there are many more examples and i thank the FC members for. thanking me for ALWAYS pointing that out RE her......and i always will.
Just like God in the bible warns of us throughout of Satans behavior,i will always do the same here RE hers.And eventually Satan is put out of commission and until FC either folds or puts CG OUT she will be exposed.

Vitamins tea and juice do the trick instead of flu shot

It will be a welcomed change to have less flu cases this year. I heard that it in itself is an awful thing to go through. Thank God I have never had to go through it and I pray that it will not come my way. I guess I will wear my mask as a precaution.
I caught the Flu Type A last February from my granddaughter and it was awful my whole body ache, my head was killing me and the stuffy nose and cough where the worse I have had. Is not something I wish on anyone, now they say that Covid is worse? OMG I cannot imagine. My daughter has a friend that was patient 0 in our area (he is 29 years old) and has Asthma, so he was really sick and still not fully recover from it, he lost he smell and now his lungs are at 75% capacity. :(
As for me I recover from the flu but my cough has lingered and now I have been diagnosed with Asthma, my dr. says my right lung has some scarring from either an old bronchitis or an old pneumonia and that is causing me to have this asthma now. And that was not COVID but the flu, I cannot imagine how I would be if I had caught COVID instead
-
All of you people who don't wear a mask, keep on not wearing one in public. You go to your doctor and he tells you to take a certain med, you take it right? You people are not doctors, so keep doing whatever you will and I pray I never come in contact with you.

I have been taking pro-biotics from Purity Products for a longtime.I recommend taking them no matter where U get them from to build up your immune system.I think that is the best defense besides a healthy lifestyle to ward off getting sick.

All you people who wear a face diaper in public keep right on wearing one. You would follow the rest of the sheep to the slaughter house. And the people who don't wear a mask feel the same way about you. I hope I never come in contact with you. Oh let's say it like you did - I pray I never come in contact with you. Only sick people need to wear a mask. So if you have a face diaper on then obviously you are sick. As for the rest of your foolish statement --- NO just because a doctor says here put this in your body does not mean I will. There are a lot of people who are smart enough to do research and not just follow what some doctor says.

Now let us do some research here.
The majority of the members here DONT agree with you NOT only on the virus but on every post you make.
You must be a masochist cos U keep coming back for more.
Why dont you try to find another forum where some idiot thinks you know what UR talking about?
When U call wearing a mask a diaper over your face thats intent to harm.
I dont say you should wear a mask other then to protect you from the virus......<snicker even tho i do think it chuckle>

I didn't realize the flu numbers were out but that doenst surprise me either

I wish they would update the flu numbers every day like they are this "virus". Not sure what you mean by the flu numbers being out. I am sure there are already cases of the flu. There are actually cases of the flu in the summer. It just isn't shoved down your throat all the time. I actually did not know that it was reported to the health department when someone was diagnosed with the flu.
But like I said earlier the flu will be basically non-existent this year because everything will be called cov.

I didn't realize the flu numbers were out but that doenst surprise me either
I wish they would update the flu numbers every day like they are this "virus". Not sure what you mean by the flu numbers being out. I am sure there are already cases of the flu. There are actually cases of the flu in the summer. It just isn't shoved down your throat all the time. I actually did not know that it was reported to the health department when someone was diagnosed with the flu.
But like I said earlier the flu will be basically non-existent this year because everything will be called cov.
I agree it would be easier to stay away for places with "Flu" outbreaks on a regular notification basis.

I looked for that info last winter but could not find it. Apparently it is reported the same way. I did not know that. I think I actually asked in the forums but nothing suggested led me to the info I was looking for. You can't stay away from it. People who are sick won't stay home. If they would (if possible) it would help a lot. People in my area go to the doctor and find out they have the flu and go to Walmart before they go home. The flu is pretty contagious and can be deadly as well.

Got a flu shot last month because I care about other people.

I certainly wish some people who have never taken or passed a science class, for that matter, would quit spreading misinformation about covid and get in gear on protective and preventative measures. This is why the numbers are going up and we are now near 231,000 dead in less than 9 full months. Stop with the ignorance, selfishness, and entitlement. You are the ones contributing to the spread and deaths and the looming shutdowns of schools and businesses in many states. Freedom is not freedom if you or the ones you care about die or are left with serious side effects.

Janice those that have a problem with Covid,<aka Countrygirl>Will only blame the deaths cos the people had other conditions etc......IOW U arent gonna win with their ignorance.
Proven fact that masks and social distancing help as well as quarantine.
Then U have CG saying after election virus will be gone.
From what i see on FC the majority here seem to follow rules set on by officials RE virus.A shame there are still idiots out there that wont go away to understand NEITHER will virus either cos of their stupidity.
Some say we are being lied to,yet they still believe it when Trump says he will MAGA....LOL!!!

You are right about stopping ignorance. And you are right about people who apparently failed science class. Anybody who even passed with a D in science is smart enough to know that a mask is not going to stop this virus. If it would then there would be no need for a vaccine. If covering your face with a piece of cloth would stop it then YOU wear a mask and YOU will be safe. So YOU need to stop spreading misinformation. Stop telling the gullible that some stupid piece of cloth will keep them from getting sick. ::)

People we do have a Flu vaccine, not a Covid yet, so do you, don't wear the mask. Happy we are in differ states

With the thousands of people who have died, how can anyone say it was because of the ordinary Flu. People wake up. This Virus is no hoax. In a lot of states their numbers have increased because of it.

lol The flu shot injected in to your body does not protect other people.

Nobody said the virus was a hoax. And it IS a new strain of the flu. Just like H1N1 was.

On Friday, the U.S. has surpassed more than 9 million coronavirus cases-and broke an unfortunate record with 99,321 new Covid-19 cases reported. That is the highest single day number of cases for any country.
From Alaska to Maine, at least 31 states reported at least one record high day of new cases in the past month, according to data from John Hopkins University. Fifteen reported one day tallies of Covid 19 deaths.
Now there's fear hospitals could become overwhelmed as the number of coronavirus cases continues to climb.

It is indeed scary, Went out to Food4less in my area once I went in I see tons of people wearing face mask just to prevent themselves from getting contact.
There are only 13 cases of this in the US. No need for everyone to be wearing masks. But people are freaking out. You cannot find a mask in my town. As soon as they come in to any place that carries them someone comes through and buys them all. I have talked to two diff people who work where they are sold and they both said the same thing.

I can't support your opinion, but I wouldn't criticize it either. At the end of the day, this is a matter of perception. For someone 10 people are a lot, to someone else, it means nothing. Can't see any reason for arguing. I think it is an awesome thing that people are now paying more attention to the protection measures because this way you can avoid big numbers. If you have high numbers, you have higher risk, so masks are a good thing. Speaking about numbers, at https://www.sunsigns.org/angel-number-4444-meaning/ (https://www.sunsigns.org/angel-number-4444-meaning/) you can find out more about the importance of the number 4444 in our lives and their meaning in everything we do.
