This is correct. A virus does not want its host dead because it cannot survive without the body being alive.
An ideal scenario of natural selection for a virus is to present virtually no symptoms but be highly contagious and to not cause harm ultimately to the host. Better yet is to actually protect the host from other forms of infection (symbiosis scenario).
