Eh idk about that. This was the first instance of something like this in my lifetime. We have had things before (mad cow, swine flu, ebola, etc), but it had never been made a big deal of like this. Why would this time be so different than all the other times if they were all manufactured things for us to "fight". Was the government we had this time to blame? We never fought any of the other ones like this, why this one now? I think this will pass and there will be news headlines in the future like "is this the next coronavirus?!?" to try and get click/ratings, but I think this one was unique and that we won't see another scare like this for a while. That is my hope at least.
