Considering that many infections result in cancer and many forms of cancer are able to move throughout the body to different areas with great ease, it's quite possible that some forms of cancer in early stages of growth begin to act like bacteriophages in a specific area where infection is already present.

Do cells get sick?
Bacteria can be attacked by viruses known as bacteriophages. The bacteriophage may cause the bacterium to lyse (split open) effectivly killing the bacteria. Sometimes the bacteriophage places its DNA onto the bacteria's DNA (lysogeny) this would make the bacteria reproduce more slowly and could cause the bacteria other problems depending where the bacteriophage's DNA was placed. So, I suppose bacteria can get viruses and get sick or even die.
