COVID can cause long lasting immune damage amongst other risks. Heart damage is also becoming more common from COVID. See post below. This risk is also cumulative and the health messaging is badly needed.

“Jiang and colleagues conclude, carefully but clearly, that their findings ‘redefine SARS-CoV-2 infection as a condition of long-lasting immune compromise’ and highlight lymphocyte dysregulation as a key immunological feature of Long Covid, particularly in people with cardiovascular disease.”

If you are getting sick more often than you used to, an impaired immune system from previous Covid infections could be the culprit.

This study measured the Abnormality Rate, the percentage of people whose immune cell counts dropped below the “healthy” range, of clinical lymphopenia in a sample population.
Before COVID: Only 4.2% had abnormally low CD8+ T cells.
After COVID: That rose to 10.6% with just one infection.

Australian Influenza update:
It became clear during November that a unusual second wave of influenza is underway in Australia, driven by the new "clade K" (H3N2 clade 2a.3a.1, subclade K).
Tasmania, New South Wales and South Australia are currently the hardest-hit.

The sheer dedication to avoiding any mention of COVID when talking about things that we know for certain are heavily impacted by COVID is...impressive.
The "after pandemic" bit is a red flag too - someone's either not keeping up, or deliberately trying to manipulate the narrative.
