We like seeing the numbers that a vast proportion of people dying from covid-19 are fatties, but we often forget that despite all the fatties in the world the mortality rate is still in the single digit percents. Most people who get it recover, even fats, although fats tend to have lasting problems from it and are burning more of our tax money for health care because of it. As you say it's not a big deal, just a little worse than the flu. On the bright side they say it could become a regular thing like the flu with new mutations and all that. Humans will be fine but fatties will keep getting slowly picked off. A fat that managed to survive it this round is likely not to the next time because they will be even weaker than before and no doubt still fat and weak from that.
