Excellent! I particularly like the reproduction of the ONS diagram for Germany.

Nicely put together observations. However the missing link is Vitamin D3. It is well known that there is a seasonal variation in serum levels of Vitamin D3 and this correlates with the frequency of winter illnesses and even depression. What is not so well know is the Spanish research into Calcifediol - 25(OH)D3 and its ability to prevent admissions to ICU and death given intravenously. The average serum level of D3 in the population is only 40 nmol/L despite the number of sunny days. This is way below the French lower reference level of 75 nmol/L. At this level the D3 blocks the cytokine storm generated by the spike protein and ensures the naso-pharyngeal surfaces contain two proteins in the mucus, one that destroys infectious bacteria the other viruses.

I think the lack of a healthy immune system is a factor in this seasonality.

Children's Health Defence had a panel discussion on where did the flu go? The video is from 3 November 2022 and IIRC, the suggestion was that for various reasons pneumonia deaths were recorded as influenza deaths. And that changed in 2020.
