It's not that specific flu. But it was far closer to being "just a flu" than something serious like the spanish flu. Also, it's a study on mice. Pretty much worthless when it comes to humans.

Do you work for a newspaper or something? Why do some people want covid to be the worst thing ever. Can't be happy it turned out to be "just a flu".

Honestly, what's your agenda? Why are you so heavily invested?

I'd ask the same question to you. What's your angle? Why minimize when there's so much evidence of various harms? Why attack someone trying to point out that people underreacting/comparing it to less problematic viruses were probably wrong?

My thing is that I have a heart condition that is highly exacerbated by covid, so people treating it with no caution (sneezing in my face these days, no care at all anymore) is very worrying for people like me. A flu, however, I'm totally fine with catching.
