That’s a fair point. But even what you say isn’t what the FluBros are saying - which is that it’s “Just the Flu, Bro”, hence their name. You’re saying that we cannot simply ignore Coronavirus, as we always did with the Flu. It’s just the degree of response.
I’ve never said it can be ignored. I’m not aware that any so-called FluBro here has either. On the contrary, Covid-19 is a serious problem made worse by intentional obfuscation and inaction by the CCP. It is not, however, the Black Death or even the Spanish Flu. Serious influenza outbreaks have been just as bad many times in the past but have not triggered the same response.
The CCP disinformation operation has worked beyond their intelligence agencies’ wildest expectations, abetted by the Fearpers here in the United States. I only hope that the ruin caused by government’s heavy hand can be overcome in a reasonable length of time. That remains to be seen.
