In the game the ONLY way to win is to infect the entire world BEFORE your virus is lethal. Otherwise of the world detects your lethal virus then they shut everything down and find a cure. And you lose the game.
The low fatality of the coronavirus reminds me of this.
Oh, also in the game you pick your mutations. So you want to be ultra contagious and THEN mutate into a highly fatal virus. Cant help but wonder. This virus.... it would win that game..
