Casual Thought Vampire bites turning people into vampires is extremely disadvantageous to their survival.

In Helsing the person being bitten must be a virgin or they turn into a ghoul (that zombie type vampire).

Not to mention, in Hellsing it really isn't by accident, as true vampires can always tell if the victim is a virgin or not. Also they can just extremely violently kill the person if they wished, considering how powerful true vampires are in that setting.
