I followed your references and they say that the 46% comorbidity is "Influenza or Pneumonia". Covid is a cause of pneumonia (=infection of lungs), so your statement "46% are coinfections with flu" seems misleading to me.

Flu also causes pneumonia, and they're listed together, so they're talking about flu and flu-related pneumonia.

Everything in these numbers is connected to covid. That's the point.

It's not my statement. You don't have to jump through hoops to indict me for linking.
