(Shakes head.) It's not the flu. And they don't "completely recover". There are reports from China of people getting re-infected and dying: the mechanism is antibody-dependent enhancement, which was already known to exist from dengue fever.

It is also reported that a lot of survivors may be infertile, as the virus attacks binding sites in the testes.

And of those who do require advanced medical care (roughly 10% of those tested positive), many suffer lifelong damage to the lungs.

The issue is not the 90% of people who shrug it off; the issue is the very severe side effects among those who *don't*.

Just post a disclaimer that you are not a doctor or epidemiologist but rather a flu hobbyist who is self entertaining at home with flu conspiracy. As far as I can tell doctors here are not reporting the issues you just mentioned. Any info coming out of China is suspect at best.

Again most people who contract coronavirus make a complete recovery. Old people are hardest hit as they are from the seasonal flu, pnuemonia and anything else that comes down the pike.
