It would be wrong to compare the Covoid-19 virus with seasonal flu. Scientists can pretty much forecast the end of a seasonal flu and predict quite accurately morbidity rates amongst those infected. With Covoid-19 they are dealing with a virus they havnt seen before. Previous incarnations of this virus were the Sars outbreak and the Mers outbreak. Information gathered on the outbreak reveals that infection isn't uniform across the globe, it varies greatly. Another example of an unknown quantity. It appears those studying this outbreak are learning more about it as it expands. As opposed to seasonal flu, (which they know a great deal about), where there is a vaccine, there isn't one for this new virus. So, in my humble opinion, to those that say,"its just a bit of flu", or "lets just get back to normal", I think you're wrong. Discuss.
