I don’t think that’s true. Covid is dangerous precisely because healthcare systems can be overwhelmed.
If you receive care and have nocomorbid conditions, Covid for most won’t be dangerous, certainly not as dangerous as the 1918 pandemic, which killed young people.
- shkkmo 5y agoI think that there is a solid argument that the 1918 epidemic would have killed far fewer people if they had had modern treatments for respiratory distress.
- heurisko 5y agoThat can't be deduced from my argument at all. Covid 19 results in mild symptoms for most young people. In comparison, the 1918 pandemic was most deadly if you were young, or old. There is a qualitative difference between the diseases.
