What the actual fuck are you on about? PHE say they detected zero positive flu cases out of 700k swabs in the last 7 weeks. RCGP state "the rate of influenza-like symptoms stood at 0.5-1.3 per 100,000 persons for December"
Not only are those two different timescales, but they are two different things. Symptoms ≠confirmed cases, yet you are using the existence of one to suggest we should show distrust in the other.
Again, it's exactly this misinformation peddling, "wake up sheeple" bullshit that is causing the uptake in vaccines to be lower than it should be.
Back on ignore.

Or read the article from the independent yesterday https://www.independent.co.uk/news/health/flu-cases-covid-england-phe-latest-b1805124.html
IMO the article is interesting as the speculation of why we have had such low numbers of cases of flu, and such a high up take of the flu vaccine. That is the bit I think that is interesting.
Or do Royal College of General Practitioners’ research and surveillance centre, who get their number from else where disagree with the PHE figures by quite a bit.
