The flu comment was some fake news. I'm surprised that you repeated that blindly. Also your assumption why you have COVID now is just racist or stupid. COVID is still out there, people still get COVID. The simplest explainatiom why you got COVID: because someone was infected and now you were unlucky in comparison to before. COVID did not disappear.

If you have no underlying conditions and under 70 or so then it is just like flu/a bad cold in 99% of cases.

  1% of all humans below 70 is still tens of millions of affected.

I see. Thanks for the comment. I'm resentful towards friends and family who are anti-vaxxers and downplay the danger, esp since I have elderly parents at risk. I'm mid 60's, they're mid 80's. > just racist or stupid I don't see that. China opened up. 230 million Chinese got infected. It mutated. A more transmissible mutation has been reported. I live in Silicon Valley with close ties to China. I live in an Asian neighborhood. I've lived here for three years. I've interacted plenty with my neighbors and shopped Asian stores. My experience has been pleasant. I have been careful and not changed my behavior. There's a chance the more transmissible mutation made it's way from China to the San Jose airport and to the Trader Joe's across the highway where I picked it up. Since I went three years and did nothing different, it's just a theory I have. Maybe my symptoms are different. Time will tell. Nothing about what I just said is racist. I am not a racist.

  It's already dominant since February and we have April now. As I said corona is here. Plenty of people haven't had it and still get it for the first time for different reasons.

    Nothing you have said has refuted the idea that I got a new mutation in March, which might medically be good for me to know. Instead you call me racist and stupid for emotional reasons that I'm not interested in.

      I tried again to make it clear that your theory has no base. It doesn't matter that you life close to asian part when this mutation is already dominant for a while across the world. The racist part came from the struggle Asians faced in USA after trump.

        There's very few Trump people in San Jose and very large Asian population so there's no discrimination. People here are worried about the large amount of travel between Silicon Valley and China. Santa Clara County was the first in the nation to lock down and the Asian community is still very careful. It's quite possible that I have a new mutation and it will be interesting to find out if this turns into long Covid after 12 weeks (I'm on week 6). I apologize for not making this clear and sounding like a racist.
