Senator Bernie Sanders tests positive for COVID-19 during Senate break as infections rise nationally
Covid has been added to the many viruses that we call a cold. It’s not the deadly virus it once was and is harmless to the majority of the human population.
If you have immune issues you should wear as mask as a precaution.
Colds are a variety of viruses. There isn’t a cold virus itself.
As for Covid, like the Flu or RSV there are those who are in danger of serious illness, the percentage is just low. It’s not anything to worry about.
The risk of developing dangerous symptoms of COVID-19 may be increased in people who are older. The risk may also be increased in people of any age who have other serious health problems — such as heart or lung conditions, weakened immune systems, obesity, or diabetes. This is similar to what is seen with other respiratory illnesses, such as the flu (influenza).
Each of these factors can increase the risk of severe COVID-19 symptoms. But people who have several of these other health problems are at even higher risk.
Yes, but those variety of viruses are rhinoviruses and COVID is a coronavirus. Just because they’re both viruses doesn’t mean they’re the same illness.

They’re vastly different species. It’s like saying a coral snake and a zebra are the same animal because they both have stripes.
