EBOLA is a mind-blogging killer and far more deadly. It is contagious when it is apparent. COVID-19 is spreading because its not apparent. At some point this will be managed as any other disease is. It is more virulent than the flu but its structure is consistent which means each year's vaccines will be able to project and control it. The advances we see now against COVID-19 are coming from our previous successes with SARS.
