It's still a very small number. BTW most of the deaths caused by the flu are not direct deaths. It kills about 10 thousands of people a year in Italy (58 millions residents) while covid-19 has killed only 59 people and recovery rate is very high Meanwhile pneumonia alone in Italy kills 13 thousands people/year The real difference? With the regular flu people stay home and die there, with this one they are being taken to the hospitals, even if there are no symptoms, and the healthcare system is under a lot of pressure for that Draconian measure are just for that: avoiding a total crash of the healthcare system
