Who called them co-morbidities? I can't find anywhere in this thread where they were spoken of, except by you.

Here's what I said:

Probably due in part to masks, in part to incorrectly attributing some deaths to covid when they were actually flu.
Do you understand what the word "probably" means? I was introducing a possibility, I was introducing a debatable concept, I was proposing a possible answer to the question/discussion on why flu cases dropped so dramatically.

My personal understanding of "probably" is "unproven, debatable, but more likely than not". And that is exactly my opinion on this. I am allowed to have an opinion aren't I? Debate it (which is exactly what "probably" does - it invites debate). But don't belittle it. In case you don't understand what you said to belittle, and choose to "dance around" and do some "hand-waving" to ignore that - oops! I gave it away. Those were the exact words I was going to point out as being belittling.

I'm sure your reading skills are not truly this bad. We're probably (there's that word again!) talking 2nd grade reading comprehension here. I am beginning to wonder what the real motivation behind your responses is. I am simply offering my opinions to a discussion, just like you are. I did not state this as a fact, I stated my opinion, clearly prefaced with "probably" to invite discussion ("discussion", not "dismissal" - that's a different word).

But it appears that you don't what to hear anybody else's opinions - you want to hear your opinions coming out of their mouths.
