Doesnt mean we should damage the world, evolution has always been about making life easier and makeing ourselves stronger. That will not change just because we do things differently.

As to viruses, if an ancient Virus came back now we would not be immune and we may not be able to create a cure before millions die (if at all). We gain immunity to viruses just as quick as we probably loose it
Last time I checked evolution didn't have a goal, just weeding out those not suited to the environment =)
