Just in case some of you don’t understand how viral evolution works, it’s very simple.
Viruses that kill you too quickly are not passed onto other people. Because when you’re dead and buried, the virus can’t spread to anybody else.
Viruses that don’t kill you quickly are passed on to more people because you are walking around, coughing, sneezing and touching things.
So let’s review. Viruses strains that kill you quickly soon end up 6 feet underground. Being 6 feet underground is an evolutionary dead end for a lethal strain of virus.
Viruses that don’t kill you quickly end up being passed to other people. So viruses that are LESS lethal spread more widely and are able to reproduce.
It doesn’t matter whether the virus “wants” to become more deadly or not, the deadliest strains end up being passed on to fewer people. The less lethal strains end up being passed on to more people.
The only type of virus that spread faster despite being lethal are zombie viruses.
And zombie viruses are not real.
We didn't make it through the cave man era with deadly viruses now, did we? I been fighting this point with a guy who has a Ph.D. For fucks sake. Poor helpless dipshits, all need feeding to the pigs
