Exactly, by saving us, science might do more harm than good. Finding a cure to covid-19 could also be seen as an human intervention into nature's attempt to regulate the human population growth. But in the the end there are only two possible outcomes: either humans will find a way to preserve an habitable environment or face extinction.

Honestly, COVID-19 isn’t the one that’s nature’s way of intervention when compared to other diseases. There’re 4 times more people dying of cancer and another 4 times as much of heart disease.
COVID-19 is just a way of the Big Pharma to fill their pockets and for politicians to make a power grab (never waste a good crisis)
Why will it again? I suspect survivorship bias here.
It's not about us. It's about the planet. Climate change only threatens us as a species. Once we're gone, the planet will recover. It's recovered from eco-collapse before, and it will do it again.
