Or a non-sympomantic kid gives it to another, who goes home and gives it to someone immunocompromised, like _me_. If I get this, I have a high chance of hospitalization and all the organ damage and ventilator consequences and etc that the flu has no serious chance of causing.
Your 'not so bad' doesn't cover the real potential costs.

Only time I’ve seen refrigerator trucks full of bodies has been after a huge hurricane. IMO it has been a long while since we had such a serious pandemic. I don’t think your claim is at all true. There are, in fact, very few diseases as threatening as this one.
