You can not help but be however when I actually look at the data it's just a bad 'flu year, and is dwarfed by Spanish 'flu.
I would advise extreme caution when interrogating graphs like that. For instance:
1. The way deaths are categorised may have changed
2. Flu has been essentially wiped out by social distancing this year
3. COVID would have been much worse had we not imposed the restrictions we did.
"We averted disaster" does not imply "COVID is just bad flu"
