1. Does not act like inf.
Isn't that nearly the exact manifestation of the 1918 strain? Early high fever, dry cough, extreme respiratory distress?

Yes the clinical symptoms are exact, however it is the transmission that is different.
If this were a typical influenza outbreak we would be knee deep in cases by now.
It appears that it takes some pretty serious contact to spread - that is a blessing, as bad as this bug is...
