> It seems a lot of people go through it barely having any symptoms. That's also what makes it so dangerous. During the early outbreaks people were constantly joking about how people with COVID-19 felt up to taking intercontinental flights, going to megachurch services, going to the gym, visiting Disneyland.... Compare to Ebola, which is pretty awful, but if you get sick with Ebola you're not going to transmit it very much because you're going to feel absolutely miserable and there's a really good chance you'll die soon. Which sucks and I'm grateful that the world managed to stop the various Ebola outbreaks we've seen, but if you want a real pandemic, you want something with a nice long incubation period that presents asymptomatically to enough people that it can really spread around a lot. And that's what we have here.
