It doesn't scare me - yet - even though I am of the age range when it starts getting seriously nasty.
It kind of reminds me of ads about women and heart attacks. (One in four women over 60 die of heart disease.)
Truth is, four out of four women over 60 die of SOMETHING, at some point.
'Normal' flu for the 2019-2020 flu season is estimated at 29 million cases in the US and thus far, covid-19, more than 100 cases.
Normal flu deaths in US 2018-19 season, 34,900. Covid-19, 9.
At this point, while nobody wants to get sick and even fewer want to die (of flu), it's a paper tiger.
