"Seasonal Flu" -- We'll Sort This Out Later -- November 10, 2020

Last year the threshold was 7.3%. Link here.

So, during week 44, they tested 16,456 specimens, and all of 21 were positive. Exactly what did the other folks (16,435) "have" if they came in with flu-like symptoms and didn't test positive? I assume they were given clinical diagnosis of Covid-19.
