Trade-Off-Hypothesis
The chapter on the trade-off-hypothesis is extremely unclear. It is mostly defining what the trade-off-hypothesis is not. A proper definition would be better than the vague sentence that virulence depends on the parasites costs and benefits. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2A02:908:1014:1F20:78B8:957D:1EC2:4FC (talk) 15:28, 3 April 2020 (UTC)
