What is a Virus? How do they get their food? Why do they mutate? Are all Viruses are harmful? Learn with Kimavi in just one minute!

A virus is a small infectious agent that can only replicate inside the living cells of other organisms.

Viruses do not have the ability to make their own food or energy, so they must rely on the host organism for sustenance.

Most viruses take over the host cell's machinery and use it to produce more of itself.

Not all viruses are harmful to living beings. Some viruses, such as the common cold virus, can cause minor illnesses, while others, such as the ebola virus, can be fatal.

Viruses can cause a variety of diseases, including the flu, the common cold, HIV, SARS, Ebola, and Zika.

Viruses are very small, and they cannot be seen with the naked eye. Viruses mutate in order to adapt to new environments and to evade detection by the body’s immune system.

Vaccines can help protect against some viruses, but there is no cure for a virus infection once it has occurred.
