Remember the flu?
Laboratory confirmed flu activity as reported by clinical laboratories remains low. Influenza-like illness activity continues to decrease and is below the national baseline.

just popping around the 'net. it's amazing what you find there.
Coronavirus is a common cold.
Other common cold viruses include coronavirus and respiratory syncytial virus (RSV).

What Can You Do to Prevent a Cold?
Colds are extremely difficult to prevent entirely. The following suggestions may help:
Avoid close contact with people who have a cold, especially during the first few days when they are most likely to spread the infection.
Wash hands after touching someone who has a cold, after touching an object they have touched, and after blowing your nose. If a child has a cold, wash his or her toys after play.
Keep fingers away from your nose and eyes to avoid infecting yourself with cold virus particles you may have been picked up.
Put up a second hand towel in the bathroom for healthy people to use.
Keep an eye on the humidity of your environment so that sinuses do not dry out.

Fun fact: CDC does NOT appear to report common cold cases separately from influenza cases, or to report them at all.
Tens of millions of cases of common cold occur each year (CDS, et al), but are not broken down in the CDC data.
If you could somehow turn the common cold into a scary disease boom! it would be an instant, statistically massive pandemic
But can you die of 'common cold'?
"Most people know that the flu can kill….But what about the common cold? Can you really catch your death?"
The common cold is normally a mild illness that resolves without treatment in a few days. And because of its mild nature, most cases are self-diagnosed. However, infection with rhinovirus or one of the other viruses responsible for common cold symptoms can be serious in some people. Complications from a cold can cause serious illnesses and, yes, even death – particularly in people who have a weak immune system.
A virus-induced bacterial infection is one way a cold or flu virus can lead to death….This can allow bacteria, such as Streptococcus pneumoniae, to bind more effectively to the cells, increasing the likelihood of it leading to a severe condition like pneumonia.
Unfortunately, a cold can also have more severe symptoms in the very young and the very old.
While the bacterial infection in these patients can be treated with antibiotics, there is no effective antiviral treatment against all types of rhinovirus. For other respiratory viruses, such as influenza, there is an effective vaccine that can help protect vulnerable people from the flu virus, including asthmatics, the very young and the very old.
Oh, and lest we forget, "One of the best ways to avoid catching a cold is to wash your hands properly."
So is the this year's cornavirus, aka "Covid-19," really just another cause of the Common Cold - an infection that occurs in such enormous numbers that the CDC doesn't even bother to break it out statistically?
Anon bets that it is nothing moar than that.

If you could prove, faith would not be necessary, contradicting the teaching of Jesus.
