How many people have died to date from influenza?

Which subtype or strain of the flu can be a factor. The exact kind of flu virus infection, such as H1N1/09, is not being tracked, nor tested and counted any longer now that the pandemic is over. Therefore, this information is no longer available.

Due to a good preventive vaccination program, many people are resistant now to H1N1/09 and the numbers would be expected to be significantly lower than the counts during the pandemic. In the US approximately 36,000 people die of one of the seasonal variants of flu viruses each year. The related question linked to this Q&A about deaths from Swine Flu during the pandemic may give a frame of reference.
