According to the WHO, there are currently only a total of 385 people globally who are positive for influenza viruses!

Obviously there are more since not all can be detected. But this extraordinary low figure helps to explain why extra mortality is not as big as governments have warned. Many people who would have died because of influenza have died because of another virus. Usually, 290-650,000 people die every year as a result of the influenza virus.
