    Covid-19, the disease caused by the coronavirus, has similar symptoms to the flu. They also spread in similar ways. So it's natural to want to compare the two. But Covid-19 is very different, in ways that make it much more dangerous. And understanding how is key to understanding why we have to take it so seriously.

    As I'm sharing this.. I know it may sound a little harsh to some people... But let me share it.. My grandma had liver cirrhosis since two years.. And she passed away in October, 2019. The doctors told that she would not live that long. And we were all a little mentally prepared it. But got very upset when she passed away. But now I feel that it's good that she passed away in that month. Because her immune system was very very weak!! And she was not able to walk by herself too!! And she frequently needed to go to the hospital for regular checkups. And if she was alive, going to the hospital could have been very risky. Because it would not be safe for her as her immunity would've been very weak. So everything happens for a reason.. We may not have all the answers now.. But will get to the answers in the future..

      And then you realize the 0.5% number comes from a political organization that had the power to stop this in it's tracks, but didn't ... but even they don't go as far as saying 7 ... they estimate about 4 (so 80% with mild or no symptoms) ... which makes me wonder how they ever got to 0.5% because most countries where you divide the deaths by 5x the infected the deathrate is still higher then 0.5% ... must be that political thing factoring in !

      Me as well. I remember gawking at my mother who was telling me how scary this was, and part of me was trying to turn away from the fear by saying "it's just another flu!", but after seeing those close to me get the virus, the number of deaths, and watching this video which really made the point clear, I'm really. upset I was so nonchalant. This is absolutely nothing to try to pass off or underestimate. It's a very serious matter. But like crzychikn1 said, at least we now understand this!
