It is absolutely not the same dynamic for every contagious disease and that is precisely why the coronavirus, with its very high rate of contagion, has shut down almost every country in the world. The fatality rate speaks for itself and it continues to increase every day. With thousands of people dying, the sarcasm in your comment was unnecessary.
