Forget the flu, for a moment. We do know how many Covid-19 cases we have (again,

it's going to be far lower because of lack of testing...), how they're increasing, how the hospitals in Houston and Phoenix are overflowing, and how many people are dying from it every day.

Keep in mind that Covid-19 is not seasonal. It'll stay here until it's stomped out. We also have no immunity to it.

The CDC has an interesting take on your claim: "Deaths due to COVID-19 may be misclassified as pneumonia or influenza deaths in the absence of positive test results, and pneumonia or influenza may appear on death certificates as a comorbid condition.

Additionally, COVID-19 symptoms can be similar to influenza-like illness, thus deaths may be misclassified as influenza. Thus, increases in pneumonia and influenza deaths may be an indicator of excess COVID-19-related mortality."
