Summary
The discovery of mimi viruses and mama viruses has led to a reconsideration of the origins of viruses and the evolutionary mechanisms that lead to their appearance, as there is nothing imprinted into the virus that makes it the way it is. The way a virus evolves is through its core evolving with its host, and in order for it to function, it needs critical components that it does not possess inherently.
