COVID-19 is special because it doesn't cause severe illness in most people. SARS killed a far far higher percentage of people it came in contact with, and made 100% of them sick, so it was much more easily detected, and therefore contained.

Right. The last case of smallpox was from a lab leak but people knew better than to fuck around with that.
Covid is asymptomatic and mild enough in enough people that masks get political
