What are you talking about? ICU, ventilators, ECMO. None of that is free.

The primary danger here isn't that it's more severe than the flu, it's that it's more infectious to other people. Contrary to popular rhetoric, only a small percentage of people in the US don't have health insurance. If so many people get infected that the intersection of people with such severe cases that they need ECMO and people without health insurance is any significant number of people, they're not going to have enough hospital rooms and equipment anyway. Which is hopefully not going to happen regardless.
