re: Quit comparing this virus to the flu

Please explain to me how this virus is different from the flu?
Transmission is similar.
You prevent getting it in similar ways.
The differences are no vaccine.
Also lethality is going to end up 2 to 3x that of flu possibly.
Even in parts of China away from the origin, the death rate is as low as 0.5 percent.
You are twice as likely to have ards if you smoke from this thing and Chinese men are three times as likely to smoke as Americans.
I'm cautious about this thing. I respect it's ability to infect. But I don't fear it.
