Our hospital has been around through dozens of flu seasons, but this year they had to bring in a refer semi trailer as an auxiliary morgue, and totally redo our liquid oxygen system. This was different than the flu by powers of ten. Without some of the drastic measures that were put in place many of us who sailed through unscathed probably would have died, and who knows how many would have been permanently scarred.
All the facts point to the realization that covoid by itself is very survivable to most ages and healthy demographics. It becomes deadly when there are other health problems. Very similar to the everyday flu.
