ask about casually

do you realize that small pox is a deadly disease? It's hardly the type of thing you ask about casually. If someone has a very serious illness, you don't expect it clear up in a couple days. You don't need to even mention what the disease is - the person will certainly remember what it is they have. "How are you feeling these days?" "How are you doing?"

I know we ask about "something" e.g. I asked about the book; He asked about the sun; I asked about Bob, etc.

But in the above context, I cannot understand "ask about casually"? Please explain to me how it has been used.

You could write it "it's hardly the type of thing that you ask casually about" Is it easier to understand?
