So hopefully, Covid19 will mutate into a much less severe and deadly virus in the near future. We hope. I personally think that it's already done that but the deadly strain is obviously still out there.

That's an interesting thought. - that it has already given us another version.
Or it could be that viral loading is making the big differences in how people experience this.
