How is it "NOT a disease"? The term is exactly that, the name of a disease (the disease cause by the SARS-CoV-2 virus). I'm not sure what the poster thinks disease means, but there is a whole category of diseases ("infectious disease") caused by viruses, bacteria, parasites, and even fungi.
Regardless of one's political bent, this has to be one of the dumbest statements on the internet, and that says something.
Unless of course you meant inflation. As far as I know, inflation isn't a virus, but it might as well be.... In that case, I apologize in advance.
