The flu killing 200-600k people per year does not average 600k people. Ergo, your data is false and makes your arguments irrelevant.

Lol.
"You chose the upper end of the range of the range of official numbers I am willing to accept. Therefore, your ENTIRE argument is wrong. AND I WIN THE ARGUMETN ERMERGERDH!!11!!!"
Okay, I'll update my question with the most up-to-date range - will you answer it? I think you either are missing my point or starting to see my point and aren't liking it because you have no answer.

Until recently, the World Health Organization (WHO) estimated the annual mortality burden of influenza to be 250,000 to 500,000 all-cause deaths globally; however, a 2017 study indicated a substantially higher mortality burden, at 290 000-650 000 influenza-associated deaths from respiratory causes alone, and a 2019 study estimated 99,000-200,000 deaths from lower respiratory tract infections directly caused by influenza. Here we revisit global and regional estimates of influenza mortality burden and explore mortality trends over time and geography.

If you do support forced-masks and forced-lockdowns for COVID, why didn't you support them for flu? Could we not cut down the 389,000 to 850,000 annual deaths by a significant factor using these measures? If so, why not use them?
Hope you can answer. Unless I have a dangling participle or something in my sentence that completely refutes my argument, that is.
