China also had swine flu last year, as well as bubonic plague. Dengue fever in most of Asia, I recall Singapore was hit badly. Simultaneous ebola and measles epidemic in Congo. It isn't sensible to even try to be aware of every possible threat unless it is somewhere you live or are visiting, or unless that is your job for public health / WHO, you'll just develop unnecessary anxiety.
I would agree with that view.
One of the positive outcomes I am still clinging on to is that there will be a far more enlightened understanding about disease, risk, viruses, and especially how they behave in modern human society. I think it's fair to say that it isn't a coherent understanding that existed even in scientific study pre-pandemic, let alone in the general understanding.
That does rather presume that we're not all forced, encouraged, or choose, to stay behind sofas for the rest of our existence.
But overall, and after a time, I think this could all be quite positive.
