Bacteria diseases are treatable; while virus diseases have never been treated, but we can make vaccines for them.
A bacterium is a single-celled, often parasitic microorganism without a distinct nucleus or an organized cell structure. It has cytoplasm and a cell wall, but no true nucleus. Various species are responsible for decay, fermentation, nitrogen fixation, and many plant and animal diseases.
Bacteria are classed in a kingdom of their own, prokaryota (although, this kingdom may now be regarded as two separate kingdoms, archaea and bacteria).
A virus is a submicroscopic parasitic particle consisting of a strand of nucleic acid surrounded by a protein coat (capsid). It does not have cytoplasm or a nucleus and can only replicate within a host cell (has parasitic nature).
Viruses are not considered to be independent living organisms as the only characteristic of life they show is reproduction.
A bacteria is a living organism - same as you but smaller (and much simpler),
whereas a virus is only genetic code (plus a protein coat for survival [and attack].
A virus in not alive, and can even be crystallized.
Viruses cannot divide or grow on their own; they can only divide and multiply when they infect a host organism. Viruses that infect bacteria are known as bacteriophages.
Bacteria can divide on their own and multiply; they have their own intracellular mechanisms for generating energy from substrates such as sugar (or other).
In essence bacteria are independent living organisms where as viruses are not.
Bacteria, like archea, are prokaryotic cells. They lack a nucleus and membrane bound organelles. However, some species of bacteria have a flagellum and a cell wall.
Viruses, in a sense, are not cells, and are not considered living organisms. Although they do have DNA, they require a living organism (a "host", you could say) in order to reproduce.
The difference between the two is considerable. The bacterial cell is much larger and most of all it is alive. The virus is very small and not alive.
A virus that infects bacteria is called a bacteriophage
