A virus is a small collection of genetic code, either DNA or RNA surrounded by a protein coat. A virus cannot replicate alone. Viruses must infect cells and use components of the host cell to make copies of themselves. Often they kill the host cell in the process and cause damage to the host organism.

So a virus to even exist must infect and often kill the host cell? That is far worse than I imagined it to be Kg. Thank you for your reply and info on where to go for more information. SIGH How do you fight and defeat THAT? Happy Sunday to thee and thine! :)
