No. They are bacteria. Viruses are non-living particles. They make you sick by landing on a living cell, reproducing using the cell, and then destroying the cell. The new viruses do the same. Bacteria are living single-celled organisms. The few that make you sick (about 1/15 of bacteria are pathogenic, meaning make you sick) make you sick by taking the nutrients out of other living cells. So, technically, since bacteria and viruses are completely different things, I don't think there's a such thing as a bacterial virus as one organism
