Serious question.

Standard? NO. "Standardish"? Yes.
If it were like Ebola, or something similar, than I'd say the freak out would be warranted.
A 98%+ survival rate is really good. Find a casino with those odds and see how many people would be in line...
Conversely, what people don't understand is that
eventually you will get it. You WILL be infected by it. (unless you live on a permanently isolated island).
You can't wear a N95/surgical mask 24/7. You can't wash enough. Transmission can be slowed down perhaps, but it can't be stopped.
