To provide a personal anecdote, I had COVID and I would say it was worse than the flu, or at minimum as bad. It beat me up, I felt like dog shit. I never had any breathing issues, though. However, it cleared up after two or three days. No one I know personally died from it, thankfully, but I did know a few hospital admissions.
I had it as well. I personally feel I've had times with the flu that were both better and worse. So I'd rank it right there with the flu. The first day was a doozy, though. I mostly slept my way through it.
I think there's a way to handle it sensibly, but to say that forced lockdowns and mandatory masks with curfews was a bit extreme would be an extreme understatement.
The training, nutrition, medicine, fitness, playbooks and rules evolve. The athlete does not.
