Covid-19 is just another flu, just my opinion. However, I'm not going to cower in my home like it's the global boogy-man, there's plenty of sky-is-falling types for that. Were you hiding in your homes behind a face mask during that time or did you not even know about it?
How about H1N1 Swine Flu in 2009? 60 million cases in the USA, 12,469 deaths. Anybody here wear a face mask back then? Any businesses closed? We were bombarded with social distancing? Any campgrounds close? Was it all over the news? Was President Obama being attacked?
I'm sorry that anyone has died from Covid-19 but there have been just as many people dying every year from the regular flu but that doesn't have people running in a panic. Why is that? Why is this flu bug is being over-hyped by the media?
Did anyone here know that the 2018-2019 influenza season killed 34,200 people in the USA?
Covid-19 did that in just 6 weeks with social distancing took 18-19 flu 1/2 year living a "normal" lifestyle.
You seem to miss what an effect killing machine Covid-19 is, there's no vaccine, and it's much more contagious.
