And from everything I've read, when a virus mutates, it weakens each time it mutates. Is this accurate?
I have read the same thing. I believe it to be very accurate. A virus mutates in order to survive, it it becomes more deadly it kills its host and dies with it. So the viru becomes more infectious, but less dangerous each mutation.
Effective viruses kill their host and therefore cease to spread.
I have an open mind
Viruses are produced within the body to help clear out toxins.
That's how normal viruses work: a really deadly virus will "burn out" and not spread as much if it kills infectees fast so those strains tend to die out while those that make your mildly sick spread more and further and keep going. This is also probably how we have old virus DNA as parts of own, it eventually adapted to become some sort of symbiont that caused no symptoms.
I learned this from playing Plague Inc.
Yep it's a gameplay strategy, if you're too deadly and symptomatic too early Madagascar gets spooked and closes it's port because sneezed in Brazil.
That's how it normally works.
it works like that in general, but it's not a given. Viruses generally become less deadly as explained, yes, but there is nothing stopping a random mutation from occurring making it more deadly. It would, however, be less likely to spread as it would kill the host before it could become as widespread as a less lethal virus.
