Notice how all types of non-covid flus suddenly drop to zero in the 14th week of 2020?

This seems to show quite obviously that literally every flu is being attributed to covid, doesn't it? And this is straight from the CDC, straight from the horse's mouth.

I'm surprised they even released this data at all given how messed up this looks. Unless I'm missing something...

But honestly, let us compare it to years prior, say starting from 2000. Do the stats compare to this year? We could average out all the flu deaths and then find the worst year and compare it to this year. If they are attributing to flu cases then flu cases would have to be pretty low for this year, no?
