Viruses have no intentions and have no desire to survive or propagate, and have no care whether the host lives or dies. Genetic mutations are completely random. The point is, there are billions of opportunities for the virus to mutate in every single host, which means the possibility of a disastrous mutation increases the more people get it.

Getting ebola is a hell of a lot worse than getting influenza.
