That's cool.

Why is covid different than the flu in terms of how we respond to it as a society? Why don't we wear masks, social distance, and shut down "non-essential" businesses to stop the spread of those diseases? They kill grandma too, and also kill the young *more* often than covid does.

Please re-capitulate it for me here incase I missed the answer at some point in the last several months where we've been kicking this ball back and forth.

Can you admit that perhaps some of the measures taken have been too drastic? Or would you argue that we *should* do these things for a bad influenza season?
