SURVIVAL ADVANTAGE. “Although viruses can clearly kill their host, they can also colonize their host without disease and thus sometimes protect the host from the same or similar virus. This new virus–host combination can thus provide an ‘antiviral’ survival advantage, especially in a virus-rich habitat. Since it is transmissible, such survival can also apply to groups that were virus colonized (not necessarily direct kin).”
