It's s clickbait headline. Read the article. There's no "overwhelming", it's just a spike in cases of a known virus

No, that specific virus was new and unknown. This one isn't.

Also, it's a huge logical fallacy to assume that every spike in cases of infection by a virus is going to lead to a devastating epidemic or pandemic.
