It really doesn't matter. Cancer kills more people then heart disease every year, but no one is going around saying heat diseases shouldn't be taken seriously or downplaying it because of this.
He squashed the Biden market bump with this (which knowing him may have been his goal after seeing what Bidens super Tuesday wins did for the market).
It's apples to oranges. Only thing they care about is protecting any criticism of Trump. Comparing the mortality rate of two different viruses even if they have some of the similar symptoms to downplay the one that you fear makes you look bad is the worst part of Trumps personality and Republicans all out willingness to cover for him.
Besides he even blew it from the Flu standpoint. You shouldn't go to work with the Flu either.
