> There is a general claim that viral diseases that hang around for a long time evolve towards being less lethal. Makes sense. If it is too lethal, the virus quickly runs out of hosts (e.g. ebola). The most insidious disease though would be one that spreads easily in one category, e.g. the young, and effectively kills another, e.g. the old and vulnerable. This is exactly what common cold, influenza and noroviruses do. And Covid-19 is a new and more virulent addition to this set. > this is a real problem when the younger working age aren't badly affected, while they can transmit it to others, and it kills the elderly. As he said, people must think of society as a whole, not just themselves in how they will respond. Bingo.
