Covid is no longer that much worse than the flu.

People bandy about that it's no worse than flu as though that's like saying it's no worse than a bad cold. Flu still kills thousands each year and will knock you on your arse for a fortnight.

evolving to be more infectious and less lethal

It was already around 3 times more infectious than the flu. If it's getting more infectious and is still just not that much worse than the flu we're in for a rough time.

And let's not forget about playing long-covid roulette every time you get infected!
