Viruses (biological)

A virus is a small infectious agent that can replicate only inside the living cells of organisms. Viruses display a wide diversity of shapes and sizes, called morphologies. Generally viruses are much smaller than bacteria. Most viruses that have been studied have a diameter between 10 and 300 nanometres.

What do you do when your cat has the flu?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

how young is your kitten?and how bad do you think the cold is? if it is just a little cold you might be able to fix your little baby up at home but if not and if your kiten is whizing and has mucus coming from the nose and runny eyes you need to take it to the vet.and if your kitten is younger then 3 weeks you have to keep a very close eye on it to make sure it feeds and is not getting anyworse if it does take it striaght to the vet.

and if it is older like a month in age and up it would be easier to take care of by puting a thing called "upper respiratory remedy" i get the kind for ferrets because i own ferrets aswell as cats but you could probably get it at petsmart. all you have to do is dab alittle on its chest and a very small amont right above its little nose you should porbaly put it on the bedding and not directly on the kitten if it is younger then 3 weeks i would recommend taking it to the vet first but this should help it has helped alot of kittens my family has rescued.

i hope your little baby gets better all the best.

How is a computer virus like a human virus?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Computer viruses are called "viruses" after the biological type of virus because of a few similarities:

Computer viruses

  • are self-spreading and reproductive
  • spread to other computers (through internet, email, CDs, usb keys)
  • damage the host computer and
  • can be prevented by "vaccination" or telling anti-virus software to block all flagged software

However it is vital to realize that computer 'viruses' are malicious scripts invented by people, while biological viruses are proteinaceous particles which are often not created by people.

The diffence between human virus and computer viruses?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Human viruses take over human cellular functions. These human viruses have either RNA or DNA instruction sets surrounded by a protein coat. After these instructions enter the human cell, they co-opt cell functions to perform duties the virus wants done. Computer viruses take over computer functions. Computer viruses are programs created by humans and have a series of 1's and 0's to make up instruction sets. After these instructions enter the computer, they co-opt computer functions to perform duties the virus wants done. So, the biggest difference is that the human virus instruction set is encoded in biological molecules of RNA or DNA, and the computer virus instruction set is encoded in 1's and 0's that the computer sees as a program to run.

Asked by Arvilla Kemmer

In the statement, which was released Sunday, IHU-Méditerranée Infection described the treatment protocol for COVID-19 patients. “A treatment with the hydroxychloroquine combination (200 mg x 3 per day for 10 days) + Azithromycin (500 mg on the 1st day then 250 mg per day for 5 more days), as part of the precautions for use of this association (including an electrocardiogram on D0 and D2)," they write, in the translated statement. “In cases of severe pneumonia, a broad-spectrum antibiotic is also used.”

Can you get the flu from the vacine?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

No, you cannot get the flu from the swine flu vaccine. What the H1N1 vaccine does is inject dead or weakened flu germs. That way if you do get the flu, your body will know what to do. But you can't get the flu from the vaccine.

What do you do after being exposed to the flu?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Sit down and relax. Drink a lot of Gatorade and water and also eat soup. Wash your hands after blowing your nose or after coughing and sneezing and cover your mouth and nose if you do cough or sneeze. Avoid spreading the virus to others by avoiding close body contact, shaking hands, etc. You may not get the virus from the exposure, but you will not know until symptoms show. You can be contagious and spread the flu for 1-2 days before you even have symptoms, so consider yourself infected and take all precautions to avoid spreading it. See the related questions below for more information.

Why do humans get the flu?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Easy, you are exposed to the germ is some fashion. It starts with something simple like an uncovered cough or sneeze and them someone touches an object. You pass by and touch that object and transfer that germ to another object, and so on. At some point someone touches an eye, nose or covers thier mouth with that germ that was picked up. Thus starts the flu.

What things in the body kill viruses?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Antibodies are what our bodies use to block the action of viruses, however, since a virus particle is not really a living thing, it is not able to be killed. It is made inert or inactive by the antibodies our immune system produces that block the entry of the virus into our cells.

Is a cold contagious?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

What is referred to in lay terms as a cold or common cold is called acute viral nasopharyngitis in medical jargon. This viral infectious disease is very contagious and spreads rapidly in most outbreaks due to the easy transfer of virus particles from person to person directly or by indirect transfers from touching contaminated items (see how a cold is spread in related questions.) The most common methods of spreading a cold include expulsion of respiratory droplets that contain virus particles when an infected person coughs or sneezes near someone else who touches and picks up the particles or who can breathe them in during a brief period if close to the person who sneezed or coughed. See related questions in the related questions section.

How can you protect yourself and others from viruses and flu?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Generally keeping a healthy lifestyle helps fight diseases in your body as they naturally enhance your white blood cells to combat any unwanted disease in the body. Boosting your immune system may require you to, stay active, eat clean and whole foods, eat lots of fruits and vegetables, drink 2–3 L of water per day, get 8 hours of sleep at night, start a hot/cold therapy (sauna), reduce toxin load, use elderberry syrup, take vitamin C (does not prevent, but reduces severity and length of illness)etc.

All of these things will help tremendously.

For a flu like virus especially COVID-19 ultimately the best way is to never leave your house but we all have a life to live so the best ways to mitigate exposure from infection is to: avoid touching you face as much as possible, wash your hands and/or use alcohol sanitizer, wear a face mask to protect against droplets in the air that may have viruses which i could recommend an N95 which is medically secure but sometimes are not the most comfortable to wear, minimize in closed areas where large groups of people gather. Hospitals are the worst so think twice before going to an ER unless you feel you really need too. Maintain adequate hydration and nutrition.

Avoid airway irritants like smoking that impair your ability to expel mucous from your trachea. However If you find yourself coughing/sneezing then please do so into your arm, a handkerchief, etc to block the spread of droplets to people around you.

You also find out more about WHO's recommendations for getting vaccinated by checking their public advice page on COVID-19 vaccines.

Characteristics of virus?

User Avatar

Asked by Wiki User

Viruses are composed of two main parts: an outer protein covering called a capsid and an inside core of either DNA or RNA. Not both DNA and RNA. Some of these have an envelope over the capsid. The ones that do not are said to be naked. The proteins in the capsid allow the virus to attach to the "docking stations" proteins of the host cell. The naked viruses are more resistant to changes in the environment.
Some naked viruses include poliomyelitis, warts, the common cold, chickenpox, shingles, mononucleosis, herpes simplex (cold sores), influenza, herpes viruses and HIV (AIDS).
Some enveloped viruses include norovirus (stomach bug), rotavirus and human papillomavirus (HPV).
The envelope can be damaged by freezing temperatures, chlorine, and phenol. If damaged, the virus cannot infect.

Viruses are not an organism at all. They are not alive. They are nonliving. They are like cockle burrs that "grab" hold of your clothing or a dog’s coat. They are hijackers. Once they get attached to the cell of a living cell, they can take it over and "make" the living cell produce virus particles instead of cell parts. These particles can assemble into more viruses and then they break out of the cell (killing it) and begin the process again. They cannot make more viruses on their own.

They are very small and can be considered ultramicroscopic. We were not able to see them with the best light microscopes as we could bacteria (prokaryotes). We have to use an electron microscope to see them as they are that small. This was not available until recently.
