What do you think

So the other day on a different social media site, i posted this statement. "I have coronavirus, some people call it the common cold" and i was told that it was offensive to people who might have someone who died from covid. I don't see why as it is a factual statement. The common cold is caused by one of the MANY forms of coronavirus that affect humans. I was trying to be funny but factual at the same time. What do you all think?

If it’s not the flu.. it sure as hell feels like the flu I’ve had 1000 times before..

The party demands you avoid the evidence of your eyes and ears.. it’s the final most essential command..

@istillhaveanameitsrick when you see a family member hooked up to tubes wires and all machines never seen anyone with all that for flu just give you paracetamol and asprin for flu

@Nyloncapes I had covid-19, my wife had it, my stepdaughter had it and a good friend of the family had it, sadly he died, i saw him hooked up to those machines and yes it was sad. Luckily the rest of us had better immune systems, though according to the experts i should have died since i'm diabetic but yes it definitely sucks.
