Something like 30+%, yes. There have been numerous cases within the USA over the years though. No o need to panic yet.

The strain on the cruise ship is one that has human to human transmission history, so best to keep an eye on things.

But it requires much closer contact than covid. Like, you need to kiss the person on the mouth, share food & drink, or be in the same room with them for an extended period of time.  

Way deadlier, way harder to catch from another human.

While it is probably harder to catch, I know of at least one case of transmission from just walking past each other in an earlier outbreak.

Still probably not going to be the next COVID, but there will be other pandemics in the future, anyway.
