Yeah.. For people saying COVID is "just the flu", I had a friend who ended up in hospital with COVID.. When I got covid and thought I may have spread it to her (fortunately she got lucky and somehow didn't get it) , she pretty much started prepacking for hospital.

It's still a super serious virus, same as the real flu..

I know four people who ended up in the hospital from COVID, one in a medically induced coma for a couple of weeks. All except one of them is in their 30's or 40's and in good physical condition, the exception is a friend's young child who is in the ICU right now and they're not sure she'll survive…
