"Flu season officially began three weeks ago at the start of May.
In March, news reports warned of an “early, unpredictable” season.
Already there was a spate of sickness that kept people away from work for more
than a couple of days at a time. Flu was the suspect.
In fact, in January, according to Australia’s National Notifiable Disease
Surveillance System, there were 9698 confirmed cases of influenza.
By the end of March there were 30,471 cases – and 76 deaths – for the first
three months of 2024.
Winter is coming and it’s going to be a doozy. Hence, flu is what people are
talking about as a public health issue, at least in the media.
But get this: in the first three months of 2024, there were 95,861 cases of
Covid-19 in Australia – and 1062 deaths."
