That is why we call it the "seasonal flu" We may be seeing the same thing with the dropping numbers of cases during the dog days of Summer. I don't know, I am a plumber, not a virologist, but it seems consistent with our current thinking. Then again, it may be explained by some entirely different phenomenon. Perhaps it is just going away, in the words of our idiot evil magician, "just like magic." Lets just protect our selves and wait and see.
