Looking at the CDC numbers they're still only estimates for the '17-'18 season and nothing on the '18-'19 season.
What are they doing waiting to see if they stay dead?

As I understand it there is a shitload of flu types out there and each year they predict which ones they have to cover with the vaccine du jour... er, du year?
Some years it works well and some years not so well, '17-'18 not so good and '14-'15 really bad.
With the death toll ranging from 12,000 to 61,000 for the last 10 years.

Of course there's no vaccine for the corvid-19, there isn't even enough tests kits.

I also saw this...
