I've been wondering about that part of modern vampire mythology in which killing a vampire cures everyone they've infected.
I think it's modern vampire mythology, at least. Not part of the original folklore about a fear of infectious death, but part of the fiction, a fantasy about being able to undo death that accidentally loops back into that original folklore - one (permanent) death dragging a whole family (back) into the grave.
