A common misconception is that viruses become milder over time as they become endemic within a population. Yet new research, led by Penn State and the University of Sydney, reveals that a virus called myxoma that affects rabbits has become more deadly over time. The findings highlight the need for rigorous monitoring of human viruses, including SARS-CoV-2, monkeypox and polio, for increased virulence.
Tracking the virulence of the myxoma virus in rabbits over time has shown that it has evolved to become more deadly, highlighting the need to rigorously monitor human viruses.
