Flu numbers at all time low in Alberta
>https://archive.is/q6XhI
>This year there have been only 17 laboratory confirmed cases of influenza in Canada with none of those in Alberta.
>"…we have not had a single laboratory confirmed case of seasonal influenza, and therefore no hospitalizations, or deaths related to influenza this season."
>In the 2019-2020 influenza season Alberta saw 8,470 lab confirmed cases and 41 influenza-related deaths of individuals who were hospitalized.
>In 2019, provinces reported 147 lab-confirmed cases of flu the first week of November. This year, they've reported four.
>This comes even though more than twice as many people Canada-wide have been tested for flu than in most years — almost 10,000 tests done in the first week of November, compared to a six-year average of about 4,500.
