This isn’t the only story pushing the idea that asthma = death by Covid. It just didn’t happen over the last 4 years. Covid killed the elderly with multiple comorbidities. It didn’t kill younger, otherwise healthy asthmatics.
As for the fictional disease in this shared world you’re writing in, sure, it can be as lethal as you want, but when writing about IRL viruses, it’s better if you’re accurate!
