It depends on where it strikes. Today's quake in Virginia is in a rather sensitive area, as the U.S. east coast is much less prepared for earthquakes than the west coast and building codes are not as strong. A similar earthquake in California would likely cause a lot less damage. Overall, it is a moderate earthquake.
A 5.8 earthquake is considered moderate in severity. It can cause damage to buildings and structures, especially in areas with poor construction standards. Depending on the depth and proximity to populated areas, it may also lead to injuries and some disruption, but it is typically not associated with widespread destruction.
