So is it worse / not as bad as COVID? Well, tough to say.
But the excess deaths are concerning, and I think for people at risk they ought to be careful.

This is a little different. Ikaris claim was specifically about risk of death and snuffs didn’t provide an age limit so the consequences of Covid are worse.
I think your statement here is more along the lines of among people not hospitalized with flu or Covid anecdotally the flu was worse. I think that’s more because people comparing a bad flu to mild Covid is not really accurate because we were testing sniffles for Covid but not testing sniffles for flu so the people who report having the worst flu and it was worse than Covid self select because the people who mild flu weren’t aware they had it.
