"Can't have been very interesting.
They're busy trying to fit the figures into their agenda  "
The ONS's agenda is to collate figures and make graphs, this is what gets a statistician hot... 86% of statisticians can orgasm just from discussing numbers.

To quote from the ONS article:
"The widespread flu vaccination was introduced in the UK in 2000; more information regarding this has been published by Public Health England in the Immunisation against infectious disease, The Green Book, Chapter 19: Influenza, (PDF, 138KB). Between 2001 and 2019, the year with the highest number of deaths was 2003 (34,496 deaths) and the year with the lowest number of deaths was 2019 (25,406 deaths).
Since 1901, the year with the highest number of deaths was 1918 when there were 172,149 deaths due to influenza and pneumonia (Figure 3). 1918 was the year the pandemic known as the “Spanish flu” occurred. There were also influenza pandemics in 1957 (known as the “Asian flu”) and 1969 (known as the “Hong Kong flu”). These years also saw a rise in the number of deaths (29,788 and 46,966 deaths respectively) but the increase was not as large as in 1918."
Basically, widespread flu vaccination has reduced the number of deaths due to flu to much lower levels since the early 2000s, and apparently uptake of this year's vaccine is at it's highest ever. This hopefully will keep flu deaths low.
Vaccination maybe the answer to getting Covid deaths similarly low, but lots we don't know about the vaccine yet. |

They need to resort to porn... such as Count Von Count on Sesame Street. |
