From what I've read Australia has had a very light regular flu season. Down under it runs from April to September. We in the northern hemisphere are just the opposite. Australia's cases of regular flu was 10% of normal. The cause was much higher vaccine rates and social distancing.
The same should occur in the U.S. if we all get vaccine shots and continue to social distance. The number of lives saved greatly offsets the number of lives lost to covid-19. It could be a difference of as much as 100,000 lives.
