Yes, COVID-19 is a bad one but it’s just another virus at the end of the day. I feel they act as we rediscovering everything about viruses for sensationalism.

- mohamedattahri 6y agoYes, but downplaying the fact that it’s new and that there’s a lot of unknown unknowns about it and its effects mid/long term is dangerous. Not all viruses are the same, and it takes time to observe and study them. This is IMO the other important reason why it’s important to stop the spread, besides overloading hospitals.
- jmcqk6 6y agoAnother way to look at it is that many people who were previously ignorant regarding most things we know about viruses are learning quickly and because they are novel to them, they find them sensationable.
