He said he had COVID. The poster I was replying to said that is just a cold and overblown. Hence my response. 

What's the difference between COVID-19 and the common cold? Both COVID-19 and the common cold are caused by viruses. COVID-19 is caused by SARS-CoV-2, while the common cold is most often caused by rhinoviruses. All of these viruses spread in similar ways and cause many of the same symptoms.

I could say the same about Pneumonia. Which is 100000000 worse than covid, kills way more people than covid, and has been  here way before covid.  But is it played out and not a social media hot topic... so not something worth talking about.

What 70+ year old isn’t worried about pneumonia?  No one is dying from the common cold. Older people are still dying of COVID, though thankfully the current variant is far less deadly.

You realize you're in a game thread on the fan board?  How about we refocus and talk about baseball, hmmm?

I've asked you to stop. In fact I asked everyone to stop.
