> A virus doesn't become more contagious and deadly. This is a misconception actually. It really just depends. It is fair to say that if a virus is more deadly in a shorter time period it is less likely to become more contagious, but it isn't necessarily true. Especially with viruses like COVID-19 which are spreadable before symptoms start.
