Viral infections are caused by the infiltration of pathogenic viruses into host cells, leading to a range of diseases across various organisms, including humans, animals, plants, and bacteria. Viruses are microscopic infectious agents with genetic material, either DNA or RNA, encapsulated by a protein coat. Transmission of viral infections occurs through diverse routes, such as respiratory droplets, direct contact, contaminated surfaces, or vectors like mosquitoes. Common viral infections in humans include influenza, the common cold, herpes viruses, and the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV). Viral infections can manifest with a spectrum of symptoms, from mild or asymptomatic cases to severe, life-threatening illnesses. The severity often hinges on the host's immune response, the specific virus involved, and additional environmental factors. Preventive measures against viral infections encompass vaccination, good hygiene practices, antiviral medications, and vector control. Ongoing research in virology aims to comprehend the molecular intricacies of viral infections, develop effective treatments, and formulate strategies for the control and prevention of viral diseases.
