In most states, it's a crime to knowingly infect others with HIV. How is this any different? COVID has a lower fatality rate but people still die from it. I never thought Trump would actually (indirectly) shoot people on Pennsylvania Avenue and still retain support. He finally kept one of his promises.
It's impossible to "knowingly spread" coronavirus. By the way, it's also impossible to knowingly infect someone with HIV. You might want to learn some science somewhere along the way.

If you know you have said virus and knowingly infect people without telling them you have it then it is a crime.
He didn't necessarily catch it first. But he knowingly spread it when he rode in the Secret Secret Service vehicle even before he left the hospital because getting atention is more important than preotecting other people's health. And what about the unmasked rally Saturday?
The SS, had masks and face shields....far more than the peaceful....err riotiers had/have on.....

It's a good question, and the interesting thing is that back in March, Deputy Attorney General Jeffrey Rosen stated that people who intentionally spread the coronavirus could face criminal charges under federal terrorism laws.
Rosen said prosecutors and investigators could come across cases of “purposeful exposure and infection of others with COVID-19. Because Coronavirus appears to meet the statutory definition of a ‘biological agent’… such acts potentially could implicate the Nation’s terrorism-related statutes.”

Because Covid is a new virus that no one seems to know much about such as why some are infected and some are not, why some die and some have no symptoms and just how it spreads or how contagious it is. Anyone of us could unknowingly have passed the virus mask or no mask, gloves or no gloves, etc.
Where as HIV is a sexually transmitted disease that has been widely studied and one knows they have it thus knowingly spreads it.
Did you really need that explained to you.
People die from the annual flu as well, should we prosecute everyone who infects others? We can also transmit hepatitis, measles, gastroenteritis, etc.
