Abstract
Graphics showing the waveforms of infections are presented to the public. The forms result from the statistical surveys, which show the number of infections registered over a period of time—it is frequency distributions that assume waveforms. It should be noted that there are fundamental differences between an influenza wave and a COVID wave.
