On another hand, people that don't take precautions get COVID maybe once a year, while the flu is more once every few years.

So even if the dangerosity of an infection was of similar magnitude, COVID would be more impactful because of its higher ability to infect and reinfect people.

But that doesn't mean we shouldn't talk about other post-infection syndromes; if long COVID can raise awareness on those there's a small silver lining.
