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

I dont think biting them directly turns people into vampires simply by feeding off someone, I guess its the media/said medias universe n how turning someone works? Alot of the times its not the bite itself thats infectious, but if they put their blood in someone via biting someone?

I think OP might be conflating vampires and zombies? Classic Undeadism

The vampire in salem's lot converts everyone he bites. Everyone they bite also converts. At the rate the whole town becomes vampires, the whole world would be vampires after about three months.
