Daily Ramble Ok, ok. The “Rad Things on the Interwebs” may be dead, but for the lovers of it, I’m going to incorporate some of them into my Rambles. That should make a better flow to the newsletter while also ensuring I’m only putting the best of the best into the Rambles.
Interesting that influenza isn't listed as a significant cause of deaths in 2020. That could be because a) it's been lumped into Covid stats (see CDC's announcement ending recommended use of PCR test at 12/31/21), or b) it's not a large enough number to show up in this graph. If memory serves, a typical flu season takes 36,000 lives. Or was that 360,000?
