It’s clearly a cold in terms of spread: wash yr hands & wear a mask. What’s curious & deadly is the range of immune responses to this cold. At 1 end of the range (no or small known symptoms) healthy hosts spread it like wildfire; other end, death from slow immune overreaction.

We don’t have enough testing to prove out your suggestion that what differs is the spread of the virus. I suspect what differs is immune responses. Good news there: we know a lot about what causes varied immune reaction across populations! It’s not my field but it’s someone’s.
