Do you believe that Covid-19 is no worse than the normal flu?

Answer 1

It is worse than the flu. At first, I was very much part of the group who believed it was the equivalent to the flu. Since then, I have lost 3 loved ones (2 of which under the age of 50) and have gotten the virus myself. It was been two months since I had the virus and I still do not have a sense of smell. 

Answer 2

It's infection and mortality rate are significantly higher than the flu you heathen 

Answer 3

As it's at higher numbers than the regular flu and we do have a larger number of fatalities, I'll readily admit that it is worse than the regular flu......BUT we are over-reacting to a large degree. The survival rate is high, even among healthy senior citizens,

Answer 4

I see the destruction of COVID-19, not flu. So I will definately say COVID-19 is worser.

Answer 5

Covid is way worst, than the flu, otherwise work at home, virtual schooling and social distance would not be the "call of the day".

Answer 6

The flu killed 34,157 people during the 2018-19 flu season. COVID-19 has killed 272,000 so far. And that's with lock-downs and social distancing that you don't see with the flu. So anyone who believes it's just a little flu are clueless morons.

Answer 7

I have no clue. Never had the flu where I'm bed ridden. Also I'm not really afraid of covid-19. The places where I go to isn't the safest places in the world. But it you eat health,good immune,take your vitamins. Shouldn't worry about covid or the flu. Past 8 months plus been feeling awesome. 

Answer 8

1/4 of a million people don't die from the flu each year.  The governments who rely on our tax dollars to operate would not shut states and countries down if this was just a flu.  No this is a World epidemic it is not just happening to you.  

Answer 9

Covid-19 isn't a normal flu, per se, and it's generally worse than the "normal" flu which typically kills between 25,000 and 75,000 Americans per year.  The Hong Kong flu in 1968-9 killed about 100,000 Americans and the Spanish flu in 1918-9 killed over 600,000 Americans.

In terms of severity, Covid-19 will likely end up somewhere between the Hong Kong flu and the Spanish flu.

Answer 10

Absolutely not. I work for a major health insurance carrier. I get to see the medical claims and, more importantly, the clinical notes from different providers all over my state. It is IN NO WAY the flu.
