You haven't shown your Apache configuration for mod_wsgi.
You need to tell mod_wsgi/Python that your virtual environment is at:
/var/www/mywebsite.com/flask <http://mywebsite.com/flask>
Adding that directory to sys.path is not enough.
Read:
http://modwsgi.readthedocs.io/en/develop/user-guides/virtual-environments.html
<http://modwsgi.readthedocs.io/en/develop/user-guides/virtual-environments.html>
as it explains what you need to do.
I can't be more specific since you didn't include the Apache configuration for
mod_wsgi.
