Flu evolves quickly and swaps components with other lineages when present in the same infectee.
Current stain doesn't spread personal to person at all but has a very high morality rate perhaps as high as 25-50% with treatment.this is 25-50x covid.
Hopefully if we do get a variant thereof that passes person to person it is also more like current flus in terms of mortality.
Keep in mind that the worst case scenario is similar mortality and community spread. This nightmare scenario could see a lot of systems collapse before we could develop a vaccine.
This is the appropriate time to work on mitigation.
