Stupid analogy. Cancer isn’t a highly transmissible virus.
It’s not a stupid analogy, you just fail to understand it.
Let me explain it for you.
People who had mild COVID cannot and should not make blankets statements like “it’s just the sniffles”. That is a careless generalization as bad as COVID is going to kill us. COVID affects different people in different way (just like cancer). I like many others got through cancer with no problems but I do not diminish its seriousness for SOME people. COVID is serious for SOME people, u fortunately it can be a crapshoot if that person is you or not. I personally know two people who died from COVID (1st wave) who were relatively young with no obvious comorbitities. One of them was a 40 year old guy who was my son’s friend’s dad.
