Notice the change from COVID-19 to just coronavirus?
Coronavirus can cause the common cold.
That is more complicated than it seems on the surface. Due to mutations there are a number of variations of the coronavirus; we have been subject to the coronavirus 'family' for some time.
This leads to the question of whether CoViD-19 was engineered - a perilous question. The current version of the virus is particularly predatory for humans - a long way from a bat virus. HOWEVER, is CoViD-19 as deadly as we are being led to believe? ...the crux of the controversy.
