Viral disease
Other namesViral infection
Infectious disease

A viral disease (or viral infection) occurs when an organism's body is invaded by pathogenic viruses, and infectious virus particles (virions) attach to and enter susceptible cells.[1]

Examples are the common cold, gastroenteritis and pneumonia.[2]

Structural characteristics

Nucleic acids are not to scale. SARS stands as for SARS as for COVID-19, variola viruses for smallpox
.

Basic structural characteristics, such as genome type, virion shape and replication site, generally share the same features among virus species within the same family.[citation needed]

Pragmatic rules

Human-infecting virus families offer rules that may assist physicians and medical

virologists.[citation needed
]

As a general rule, DNA viruses replicate within the cell nucleus while RNA viruses replicate within the cytoplasm. Exceptions are known to this rule: poxviruses replicate within the cytoplasm and orthomyxoviruses and hepatitis D virus (RNA viruses) replicate within the nucleus.[citation needed]

  • Segmented genomes:
    Reoviridae
    (acronym BOAR). All are RNA viruses.
  • Viruses transmitted almost exclusively by
    Reoviruses are transmitted from arthropod vectors. All are RNA viruses.[3]
  • One family of enveloped viruses causes gastroenteritis (Coronaviridae). All other viruses associated with gastroenteritis are non-enveloped.
