> What bull are you referring to?
The bull that was clearly quoted? "Influenza kills thousands of people under 18 every year". The linked data does not say that at all.
You're being difficult just to be difficult here.

No, it does not. You didn't actually look at the numbers. One of the worst years overall shows 115 for 0-4 and 528 for 5-17:

There are some years where the total is a little over a thousand, but most are well below.
Don't spread this bull.
I would like to speak to this after interviewing at a few places recently, including Google. I don’t think a single interviewer looked at my resume. I’ve developed a sizable open source project that is used by real people for over a decade. If the company really wanted to know if I could write code they could just go and look at it. Instead they ask puzzle questions that I have no interest in and end up failing. These companies expect the candidate to spend weeks preparing for their hoop jumping, but can’t be bothered to actually read the CV. Multiple people didn’t seem to realize where I lived even when my address was at the top of the paper.
