"COVID-19 symptoms generally appear two to 14 days after exposure. Flu symptoms usually appear about one to four days after exposure. COVID-19 appears to be more contagious and to spread more quickly than the flu. Severe illness such as lung injury may be more frequent with COVID-19 than with influenza. The mortality rate also appears to be higher with COVID-19 than the flu". Mayoclinic
35000+/- died in US from influenza last year. We're over 200,000 with this one. Remember when 60,000 was the WH estimate? This is SERIOUS.
It seems crazy to have to say it, but a guy I know in Louisiana refuses to wear a mask 'cause he says "men don't give in to fear."
