Mortality rate 20 times worse than the "flu" .1% vs 2%

People with respiratory problems and heart problems can live for 30 -60 years, they are not "on there way out"
My parents are "significant" to me.
If this is left unchecked it becomes endemic, which means it is here to stay.
Every year you will have to deal with "the flu" and Covid-19.
If 50,000,000 people in the us contract covid-19 with a mortality rate of 2% ?
