I disagree.
And people pretending this is somehow worse than other calamities are fear mongers.
I get that it's scary, and I think the breathing factor plays big part of that.
But more people are dealing with and dying of worse things every single day, I'm not saying that to downplay the severity, rather to help keep things in perspective.
I watched a good friend who was a complete bad ass wither away in a few weeks. Couldn't keep food down, even struggled with drinking water. Hadn't eaten in two weeks when I saw him. Constant pain from sternum to liver. ZERO energy level .Said a hiccup felt like a firecracker going off. A cough? A grenade. He died 10 days later, two days before my birthday.
It all sucks big time, but life HAS to move forward.
