I recommend that if you're going to compare Covid-19 to the other superbugs that have one year statistics...best than to wait a full year for Covid-19 to have its own statistics.
Covid-19 started in China in December 2019. That would imply the we can then start comparing Covid-19 in December 2020 because it would have then had a full year of statistics.
Another way you can use the statistics is to compare the numbers by the month of infection, deaths and spread. I've never seen those numbers discussed during the current Covid-19 outbreak but I have seen the monthly stats of the other superbugs in medical journals.
If you do that, Covid-19 is up there with the other superbugs for each of the first four months and I have seen at least one WHO member discussed that fact but he did not go into details about the specific stats. Its one of the reasons why the health organizations are in a panic as they get for the other superbugs...
Panic usually subsides exponentially when antibiotics, vaccines and easily available treatments are discover for the superbugs.
I prefer to look at it like a cancer. If you go to a doctor and they tell you there's no antibiotic, no vaccine and no government approved treatment that will save you...people tend to freak out.
Now imagine if they tell you...you're highly contagious and you need to be quarantine to protect the public. Its a scary thing to experience...I've been there twice as an infected patient and now Covid-19 has arrived.
So yeah, I've been thru this panic before when I myself had one of those other listed superbugs and the hospital went into a panic (the floor I was a patient) and all doctors / nurses that had enter my hospital or the ICU had to be quarantine and blood tested.
I saw that panic in the hospital although the public was never aware about what was occurring in the hospital.
Now with Covid-19 and I'm healthy...I can see the exact same panic in so many others in my community / surroundings / government because too many people are not following the health recommendations.
Regardless to all the conspiracy theories or boogeyman stories...you still gotta follow the health recommendations no matter your age or recent (prior) health conditions. That's the problem, some believe in those stories and then make the idiotic decision to follow the health guidelines...that's one of the reasons why Covid-19 has been having the current panic reaction.
Too many people didn't care and now they're sitting around after infecting others...blaming the government and health officials.
