Do pathogens always evolve to be less virulent? The virulence–transmission trade-off in light of the COVID-19 pandemic
The direction the evolution of virulence takes in connection with any pathogen is a long-standing question. Formerly, it was theorized that pathogens should always evolve to be less virulent. As observations were not in line with this theoretical outcome, new theories emerged, chief among them the t...
