Perhaps all those basic public health measures implemented to contain and eliminate the spread of air borne diseases such as COVID or the flu is a factor?
I mean,the lockdowns alone have a clear and critical and measurable (and measured) impact in lowering the spread of COVID. Wouldn't it be possible that staying away from people with the flu was also a factor in not catching the flu?
