When making statement like this in a political environment like ours you should consider the facts that underpin this. With the great majority of people practicing safe sex, there's evolutionary pressure on the virus not to kill its host before a passionate slipup, which may well be 10 or 20 years. Also, there's very effective medication available. None of these facts is true for covid. There's no pressure at all for the virus to become less virulent, it's an airborne disease, and what medications are available are not particularly effective.
