The virus itself.
Viruses get their way into a host cell (possibly one of the cells in your lungs, for instance) where they replicate themselves. The new virus bodies are released by the cell, and from there they may go on to invade other cells, of the same individual or another individual.
The harbouring of virus bodies in this way is called infection. Many viral infections have little or no effect on us, so you may have one now without knowing it. By "infection", we normally refer to harmful virus infections.
The immune system is a mechanism we have to protect from harmful viruses, as well as harmful bacteria, fungal infections and other foreign bodies.

Is systemic viral infection dangerous?
I would think that a viral infection that's systemic is prolly nothing to mess around with. A systemic infection means that it effects the entire body and having anything viral can cause many issues: a viral infection can't be cured by meds cause it has to run its course and an antibiotic only helps with with bacterial infections or also in other cases yeast. Sometimes a viral infection can turn into something more serious so I suggest always number one... Follow doctors orders, eat lots of fresh garlic and vitamin C to keep up immune system, lots of rest and plenty of fluids. Depending on what viral infection I would suspect that each has it's own severities. Good luck;)
