Some common examples of human viruses include the common cold, influenza (such as H1N1 and Swine Flu), herpes (cold sores), and chickenpox (Varicella zoster or VZV). More serious viral diseases include AIDS (HIV), polio, and ebola.
Influenza viruses are spread by coughing and sneezing. The norovirus and rotaviruses, common causes of viral gastroenteritis, are transmitted by the fecal-oral route and are passed from person to person by contact, entering the body in food or water. HIV is one of several viruses transmitted through sexual contact or by exposure to infected blood.
Viral infections provoke an immune response that usually eliminates the infecting virus. These immune responses can also be produced by vaccines, which give immunity to specific viral infections. However, some viruses including HIV and those causing viral hepatitis evade these immune responses and cause chronic infections. Microorganisms also have defenses against viral infection, such as restriction modification systems.
Antibiotics have no effect on viruses, but several antiviral drugs have been developed.

Please tell me that ........ Types of viruses by internet network?"
There are various different types of computer viruses out there. For example, there are key loggers, which will log what the victim types.
why were viruses discovered later than other types of microorganisms.
The types of computer viruses are the virus, the worm and the Trojan horse.
yes
Bacteria, and Viruses.
I guess probably no one can answer this question .. There exists plenty of types of viruses and trust me a lot of viruses exist :)
Electron Microscopes are used to study viruses.
Because viruses originated from a variety of host cells.
They both require a host cell to reproduce and they are both types of viruses
It depends on what you mean. If you mean types of viruses, there are:Virii,Trojans,and worms.
