Well...the other thought is that with this rapid mutation it is possible the virus burns itself out. The virus is mutating because the human isn’t the optimum host for the virus. It is doing this without humans even doing more than prophylactic care in most cases. So the question would be why? And the only conclusion I can justify is because we’re the wrong type of host.

Or another, it was designed that way.
SARS mutated itself out of existence back in ‘03. There’s a study in Arizona that COVID is mutating and becoming less deadly. It is related to the stain from Europe which infected most of USA.
