I don't think it's mutating. I think it's just very novel, and also came with its own red herring in the form of the respiratory symptoms. Doctors treated the problem in front of them and assumed it was like other things they'd seen, when in reality that was just the tip of the iceberg. But it's reassuring to me to see discoveries being made and treatment evolving. I think the disease will become much less deadly long before we have a vaccine, just due to new discoveries in how to treat it.
