I'm not sure what that statement has to do with mine. Many medical procedures/visits that don't need to happen right now should nonetheless not be postponed indefinitely. Dental cleaning is certainly one of those. Others are operations to correct chronic pain or to forestall a future emergency.

Now, you're certainly welcome to think that we should continue pushing those kind of visits/procedures out indefinitely but health officials in most places disagree.I'm being quite conservative in general but I have gone back to the dentist since they reopened.

No where in these comments did anyone say "it's just the flu" or anything like that. You're straw-manning.
