If you dig a little deeper into Italy's numbers, it shows as follows:
https://coronavirus.jhu.edu/map.html
47,021 cases in Italy 4,032 dead 4,440 recovered
We still have to wait to see how the dust settles on this one because there's too many active cases up in the air.

So far, the new coronavirus has led to more than 220,000 illnesses and more than 9,300 deaths worldwide. But that's nothing compared with the flu, also called influenza. In the U.S. alone, the flu has caused an estimated 36 million illnesses, 370,000 hospitalizations and 22,000 deaths this season, according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).

That’s exactly how this works. If you expose generation after generation to a virus, genetic immunity develops.
Are you aware that viruses mutate?

It's really implausible that you have never had the flu. How could you even know for sure that you haven't?

Some weeds will let your lawn and garden thrive and others will take it over and let everything die. These numbers are not analogous.

The flu has such distinctive symptoms you would know if you had it. Primarily you go from feeling fine to being incredibly sick within a few hours. I’ve never been sick like that except for strep throat.

The German numbers are crazy. How come they only have a fraction of the mortality of other countries? They also have a lot less registerd cured people in relation to Spain for example
I think they are fucking with the numbers

I've never gotten the flu either, but based on my life of hand washing habits I should have / might have caught every disease by now. I hope that means covid will be a breeze when I get it

maybe your immune system has got to the point where intruders are fighting for place, rather than it fighting intruders

Maybe not intentionally.
I wouldn't take US numbers at face value right now either. Everything is so disorganized and disconnected that it would be crazy to try to.

I dont remember ever having had the flu until two years ago. I got floored for sure
In bed with a high fever for 5 days and another 10 days to get well again. My mother in law got infected too and nearly died of pneumonia. She was in the hospital for weeks

This just happened today. Our President is damaging our country with these types of answers to questions:
Aaron Rupar @atrupar PETER ALEXANDER: What do you say to Americans watching right now who are scared?
TRUMP: I say that you are a terrible reporter. That is what I say. I think you had a nasty question.

That reporter asked the same question to pence and got a respectful answer.
What a mistake it was not to remove him from office when we had the chance.
Quote:
Pence is awful too, but watching him breezily answer the SAME question by the SAME reporter that send Trump over the fucking deep end while he just fumes in the background has gotten me through the morning.

Yeah it might be asymptomatic if your resistance to it is really good but you're likely still catching it.
