    Not comparable, not how viruses work.

    We actually saw COVID coming (researchers and scientists did at least, there are been papers and documentary about it even), but there’s a very low chance we’d get yet another pandemic so soon

        How can someone predict a rapidly mutating virus will appear in new forms?

        Is that a serious question? The common cold? SARS? MERS?

        That’s like asking how I can predict a new Star Wars show or movie will come out in the future.

        Might not. But probably will.

      Even if we got one again… Is a life dictated by fear of the next mean thing worth living?
