> It wasn't particularly pleasant, but certainly not a "deadly virus"

I know somebody who contracted Malaria and lived. It wasn't particularly pleasant but certainly not a "deadly disease".

Malaria is not an infection by a coronavirus (I do know one person too, FTR, my grandfather during the Albanian campaign in WWII). And it is not age stratified like a SARS-CoV-2 infection. And there's no 95% seroprevalence like with SARS-CoV-2 in most regions that had surges.
