People often mistake the way factor's play together: more tranmittible means more deadly and more cases means more deaths (a lot more if health systems are overwhelmed). It's also entirely normal for viruses to become more transmissible, to have later symptom onset and to less deadly over time since those factors all make it more likely to spread.
