The coronavirus is slowly retreating. With the virus currently on a rampage in multiple countries this definitely is not a good start, even given the caveat about the emphasis being "local" and the situation "not being exactly the same globally". So: Sars-Cov-2 isn’t all that new, but merely a seasonal cold virus that mutated and disappears in summer, as all cold viruses do — which is what we’re observing globally right now. I wanted to give the author the benefit of the doubt, given their credentials. But this is just weird, manipulative spin control. All indications are that Sars-Cov-2 is definitely not "merely a seasonal cold virus", in neither its origins (confirmed to be very different from that of regular cold viruses) or its symptoms (far more complex and estimated at roughly 10x more fatal that influenza).
