What get's me with this is how they announced it in advance. At the very start of the year they were flagging that the Flu would return with a vengeance and here it is.....complete with Free Flu Jabs for all. (Flu Jabs are normally around the $14 mark)So Australia gets most of it's population vaxxed by Dec 2021 and we have massive Covid Case numbers in Summer (Dec 21 to March 22)and now we have Australia's warmest state having rapidly rising Flu cases well before the Flu season which is normally around July.
Look at the graph. There is no Flu for 2020 and 2021 and now it's magically reappeared? Also why did Covid19 cases Sky Rocket in the Summer season? The only explanation for all of this that I can think of is that the Jabs are compromising People's immune system.
Again look at the Graph. Australia's Flu respiratory illness season generally runs from July to September. And yet Covid cases started rising in Summer (December) and have been peaking continually up till now outside of the Respiratory Illness season. And now we have Flu running riot in Tropical Queensland in May well before the normal Flu Season??? (Look at the red line in the Graph)
Check out the Weather for Queensland's Capital city Brisbane. They are in the low 20's. That's essentially summer temps for other places in the World. For Americans Queensland is a little like a Florida climate. (The Temps at the moment are around 70F- 75F in American Speak) Here is the Brisbane weather forecast for the next 7 days. Why is the Flu running amok in that warm climate 3 months before the start of the normal Flu pattern?

Queenslanders are being offered a free flu vaccine in a bid to protect against Influenza A as case numbers surge across the state.
People aged six months and older will be able to get a free flu vaccine from now until mid-June from their local GPs and pharmacies.
It comes amid a major outbreak that had seen more than 4,000 flu cases already reported this year.
Queensland Health have warned cases have been doubling every week — increasing from 1,848 cases to 4,282 in the latest data released last week.

Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk said she had taken the "unprecedented" decision to protect people amid low rates of immunity.
"Case numbers are climbing earlier than expected," she said.
"We are seeing the impacts on our hospitals and if we don't get a vaccinated community with the flu vaccine, we are going to see escalating numbers in our hospitals.
Ms Palaszczuk said 151 people had been hospitalised with the flu so far, while 10 were in intensive care.
"The flu season this year is significantly bad and it's comparable to the season we had in 2017," she said.
Ms Palaszczuk said young people aged between 10 and 30 were particularly at risk and warned symptoms would be similar to COVID-19.
She said cost-of-living pressures were another reason she sought to make the vaccine accessible to all.
Since the onset of the pandemic, COVID-19 health measures had reduced flu cases to almost nil.
Concern about children contracting Influenza A
Influenza A was more severe than Influenza B and will lead to more hospitalisations, Acting Queensland Chief Health Officer Peter Aitken said."Vaccination rates for children six months to less than five years of age is just 6 per cent," Dr Aitken said.

He urged parents to get their children vaccinated as soon as possible as the virus commonly affects young people and older Australians.
Health Minister Yvette D'Ath said the 2017 flu season saw more than 750 people in intensive care.
"Our 2019 season saw about 300 people," she said.
"The fact that more than 4,000 cases have already been detected when flu seasons don't usually begin until late July is very concerning," she said.
