Flu/Pneumonia vs. Corona in Wisconsin

Hmmmm.

Flu + Pneumonia deaths in Wisconsin in the last 3 weeks:  ~250.

Corona-19 deaths in Wisconsin, YTD total:  56

(While "flu-related" numbers are small (see the link), pneumonia commonly follows flu).

Deaths from Corona-19 are expected to rise significantly to about 950 total by June.

Total seasonal flu + pneumonia deaths to date ~1650.

Perspective matters.
