Okay so you know how with each DLC, Bungie has always added small PvE events before release? & Remember that in those events there were small pieces of the raid to prepare us?
[u]Crotas End[/u]
Swords of Crota
[u]House of Wolves[/u]
Scorch Cannon
[u]The Taken King[/u]
Orbs (Rift)
OWL is the Rise of Iron piece.
Bungie has even said in a video (trying to find it) that they try to create encounters in the campaign to prepare us for raid mechanics. This virus will be part of the raid, guys, but it won't be pretty.
Let's use the few days we have left to maybe speculate or figure out how this could be used against us!

Maybe the mites are necessary to damage the raid boss but the only way to spread it to your teammates for the purpose of damaging the boss is to spread it via the super trading method described in other posts. If so, this raid boss is going to be annoying.

Each may disable a certain ability or inflict something like trickle or exposure. Makes sense with 5 of these things offering a sliver of hope if one dies during the raid encounter.

THAT IS GENUIS! You can randomly be inflicted with one of them at some point during raid and they enable a random modifier
