I could be wrong but, I feel like I've read if you are healthy + young, it's on average pretty much just like a bad flu (or no symptoms at all).
- tunesmith 7y agoMaybe on average, but it sounds like the variance is more extreme. I've heard enough horror stories of 30-somethings with no health problems being on death's door from this thing that I don't want to risk it, when I might for flu season (plus, there's a flu shot). I don't want to stop with the physical distancing until there's an effective anti-viral treatment.
