First this is a new virus. That means our bodies have not seen this virus before and we are unlikely to have any antibodies. This virus seems to be spreading through the human population much faster than flu, and part of that has to do with the fact that all of us are susceptible. With the flu, most of us are carrying some level of antibody protection from a previous year’s exposure or from a vaccine. Additionally, the case fatality rate is estimated to be 10 times higher for COVID-19 that the flu. Lastly, this virus is new to medical personnel, too. They are learning how best to both take care of patients and possibly treat it.

You know the flu was once new as well right? Of course it’s worse because it’s new, but it isn’t going to kill 30 million people

all that matters right now
My wife just had a baby, and the pediatrician doing the rounds majored in Public Health, and he said all the same things:
1. This thing is more contagious than the flu.
2. The death rate is higher than the flu.
3. We are still in the learning process.
It has similarities to the flu, but right now is the worst time for it, and we won't be in the "oh it's just covid" for some time.

Ok this is right for case fatality rate. Misread originally
It's still basically the flu for non elderly people

The other question I have is how long will
It take to vaccinate the whole country? Can that realistically be done in a year? I have a hard time seeing there be enough dosages.
