Will the U.S. see a “Twindemic” of both COVID-19 and the Flu this coming winter?
The answer is no.
Yesterday I watched a CBS News video saying experts were warning the U.S. could see what they are calling a “Twindemic” of both COVID-19 and the flu this coming winter, please see this video at https://www.cbsnews.com/video/health-experts-warn-of-flu-resurgence/?intcid=CNM-00-10abd1h#x
I think they are absolutely wrong and they are still making mistakes. You know, they made mistakes about masks at the beginning of this pandemic, now they continue to make mistakes.
Why they made mistakes? Because they don’t know the nature or the science of how respiratory infectious pathogens are transmitting, this is a matter of physics, they do not know physics well, so they made a lot of mistakes.
I have been studying the respiratory infectious pathogens’ transmitting for years, so I know this nature and this science.
In March 2020, I concluded that wearing cotton gloves and masks simultaneously can end any infectious respiratory pathogens’ pandemic very easily, I emailed my idea to the U.S. CDC at that time, but have not got their attention yet.
Here are two facts proving I know these sciences.
On Jan. 26, 2020, I told a group of my friends and relatives on our social media WeChat, “Not only to wear masks but also gloves,” it took me the whole previous night to figure out the glove measure. Following are the 3 snip screenshots from my WeChat in my phone, they are the evidence certifying when I thought of gloves (not only cotton gloves.) These chats are in Chinese.
When I watched ABC News on Feb. 7 (U.S. time Feb. 6, 2020), ABC News chief medical correspondent Dr. Jen Ashton said, “Doctor Fauci himself told me that the size of the corona virus particle is so small that it can infiltrate these surgical masks, so there is no evidence that they are effective in protecting a healthy person.” Please watch from 5:56 to 6:10 of this video at:

Now, you can see Dr. Fauci was wrong about masks at first, but I was correct.
I predicted in my email to the U.S. CDC on July 31, 2020 and in my paper posted on Aug. 11, 2020 on Medium at:
I wrote, “Even people don’t trust me, but with more people believing in masks and wearing masks, I’m pretty sure the flu outbreaks in the U.S. will be very weak this winter.”
This prediction of mine has already been verified by the U.S. CDC, please watch this Feb. 17, 2021 ABC News video at:
https://abcnews.go.com/WNT/video/cdc-lowest-rate-flu-related-hospitalizations-75956447
This video saying, “Well, we can take this, there was encouraging news today on the flu-season here in the U.S., the CDC reporting the lowest rate of flu-related hospitalizations since it began keeping records. 165 hospitalizations, 165 between October 1 and early February compared to 400,000 in that time last year. An increase in flu shots, masks and social distancing making the difference. ”
But Dr. Fauci did not realized that the current public health measures, like masks, could very effectively block the spread of other respiratory pathogens including the flu, in September of 2020, it looks like he thought the flu outbreaks in the 2020 fall and winter in the U.S. would be as same as previous years, and so he was worried about the flu. ABC News host David Muir said on Sep. 27, 2020, “Dr. Fauci has said, we need to be at 10,000 cases a day as we head into the fall flu season to tackle this pandemic.” Watch from 0:26 to 0:35 of this video at:

Now, you can also see in September 2020, Dr. Fauci was worried about the 2020 flu season in the U.S., but I predicted in July 2020 that the flu outbreaks would be very weak in the winter. The outcome was that my prediction is absolutely correct.
These two facts all have solid evidence.
Now I would like to emphasize that my cotton glove blocking respiratory infectious pathogens theory are not speculation but scientific conclusion. Let me tell you the science why I concluded in 2020 summer that the flu outbreaks would be very weak in 2020 winter in the U.S.
Health experts have not found the following sciences:
1. All infectious respiratory viruses are transmitting in exactly the same ways.
2. If infectious respiratory virus A is more contagious than virus B that means virus A can survive longer than virus B at the same temperature and humidity.
3. The temperature and the humidity are higher, the viruses are dying quicker, because their metabolism is higher. So the viruses survive longer in winter than in summer.
4. Under the same physics measures, the less contagious virus B disappears sooner than the more contagious virus A.
We all know that flu outbreaks are in fall and winter in the U.S. not in summer, but we saw COVID-19 surged in last summer in the U.S., that means COVID-19 can survive longer than the flu, and COVID-19 is more contagious than the flu. We also know people were wearing masks in 2020 summer in the U.S., to block COVID-19. I knew people would still wear masks in 2020 winter in the U.S., according to the above 4 sciences, I knew in 2020 summer that the masks will also block the flu in 2020 winter in the U.S., since the flu is less contagious than COVID-19, under the same measures (mask wearing), the flu cases would certainly reduce significantly, so I predicated in 2020 summer that the flu outbreaks in the U.S. in 2020 winter would be very weak. You know the outcome has verified my prediction. In fact it was not a prediction, it really was a scientific conclusion.
If there are still a lot of people unvaccinated yet this winter, maybe Delta variant will surge again this winter, people will still wear masks (take these physics measures), if that’s the case, maybe we will see very few flu hospitalizations this winter or not at all.
If there are enough people vaccinated this winter, Delta variant will not surge this winter, people will not wear masks (not take these physics measures), if that’s the case, maybe we will see more flu hospitalizations than last flu season (165 flu hospitalizations last season), but I don’t think it will be more than 10,000 flu hospitalizations, still far less than the previous season 400,000, because physics measures have reduced the living flu in our environment significantly.
According to the nature or science of the respiratory infectious pathogens’ transmitting, we will never see a twindemic of two different respiratory infectious diseases, because if there is respiratory pandemic, we will certainly take some physics measures, and these physics measures will certainly beat the less contagious virus first.
