Coronavirus: The virus has very similar symptoms to other viral illnesses including the flu. The virus has caused severe pneumonia and adult respiratory distress syndrome in people who have gotten very sick or died. This can happen with other viruses too. People with Corona who are smokers and middle to older men have been the most likely to get real sick.
