COVID is much more than “just the flu”
Also, not a single person in medicine or public health with any knowledge of infectious diseases has ever referred to influenza as “just the flu”
The flu is awful and can be deadly and had killed millions.

Twitter is now an exponentially less useful tool for disaster updates than it was just a few months ago.
