HIV is a virus why haven't we been under house arrest since the 80's?

HIV is indeed a virus. The difference is that is is pretty difficult to
transfer the HIV virus. You cannot get HIV from merely being close to
someone who has the virus or indeed touching something a HIV
sufferer has coughed over. The transmission is completely different.
It seems that Coronavirus is pretty easy to get, it is emerging that it
may be even more transmittable than most other viruses. Only time will
tell if it is as transmittable as diseases such as Small Pox but it is
beginning to look that way. I would have thought all the above was
pretty obvious.

How can non living chunks of RNA/protein behave as radically different animals? HIV bits of protein can only be transferred by sodomy or blood but Yellow Flu-aids bits of protein can fly up to 5' 11" through space hunting down new victims. Something doesn't add up.
