This is natural selection in action.

1. Viruses naturally mutate all the time. It’s what they do, naturally.
2. Those variants that do a poor job of infecting new hosts die off.
3. Those variants that do a good job of infecting new hosts AND DON’T KILL THEM are the MOST prevalent ones.
4. Over time the virus becomes just part of the biome. Like e Coli, a bacterium which is EVERYWHERE.

What about lab created Frankenviruses released in succession to herd the fearful populace into Eldercide jabs?

Isn’t it amazing that you learn all that as a first year biology major, but somehow those facts seem to have escaped all the poobahs at the CDC, NIH, etc?
