Takeaway: Be on the watch for TPTB trying to whip up the same paranoia and fright over the flu that we had over COVID.
Rather than admitting their mistake and backing down, the public health establishment spent two years progressively lowering the standards of acceptable risk to justify their ruinous measures. Perversely, this has positioned them to demand equally catastrophic containment measures in response to literally any other virus, which is precisely what they’re trying to do now. Whole careers and research programmes, after all, hang in the balance.
Well at least we have high quality randomized control-group studies on masks against influenza showing no statistical reduction so will they FUCK OFF with that?
"They're trying to take the ring from you, my precious. Tricksy hobbitsis. But, they cannot if you keep them bound and confused. Must keep them paralyzed in fear. Yes, my precious, that is it, fear to bind them forever!"
Well, I almost had it right. I figured covid would become the new flu, annual hit-or-miss vaccines and all. I didn't predict that they would try elevating the flu.
For what it's worth, I'm just recovering from the flu and it sucked about 10x worse than Delta. Laid me low, had four days of fevers spiking to 104. Haven't gotten the flu in probably 15 years. This isn't me justifying anything they're saying, just cover your ass.

The gall of these evil fuckers

Of course not.

"Uh, Mr. Secretary..."

No offense, but it's worth nothing. The flu has always sucked.
Frickin' lol.
If these individuals are so scared of the flu, then they need to start sealing a plastic bag over their head to protect themselves.
Just think they won't have anything to worry about after awhile, at least if they wore the bag correctly and tightly sealed.
Oh wait, they just want more power and control, nevermind.
Every living thing must someday die. The West is suffering, among other things, from a delusion that if we try hard enough, that is not so.
