Original Note:

The reason there were far fewer cases of the flu as well as RSV in 2020 and 2021 was due to measures adopted to slow the spread of the virus that causes COVID-19, such as handwashing and social distancing. These viruses are transmitted in much the same way as SARS-CoV-2. https://www.factcheck.org/2023/04/scicheck-fewer-cases-of-flu-due-to-pandemic-precautions-contrary-to-viral-claim/ https://www.scientificamerican.com/article/flu-has-disappeared-worldwide-during-the-covid-pandemic1/ https://www.hsph.harvard.edu/news/hsph-in-the-news/a-sharp-drop-in-flu-cases-during-covid-19-pandemic/
