None of this applies to 2 of the top 5 biggest states in America, Texas and Florida. Try again. Literally millions of people who didnt do anything you described and also participated in large gatherings.Everyone has always known that schools are the biggest reservoir for the flu and children spread that shyt like crazy. Schools have been closed down for a year. Don't you realize that's a major factor?
Not to mention masks, social distancing, better hand-washing, more sanitizing, working from home, people buying more shyt online rather than going into stores, all large-crowd events getting shut down, no indoor dining or other extended-time indoor events, etc.
It would be more shocking if influenza hadn't gone down dramatically. Y'all want this to be magic or some shyt when the explanations are obvious.
Or is this the part where you say Florida and Texas are also lying about flu numbers
