Bacteria and viruses attack the body. Each type of bacteria and virus attack different areas of the body. Also, there are many different ways of gaining access to the body. They attack the body by trying to shut down a certain system, which without your immune system, would kill you. Bacteria and viruses evolve. However, viruses aren't presently categorized as living organisms.

How does interference with the RNA in bacteria affect the natural functions of the bacterium?

RNA interferes with the natural functions of bacterium by limiting gene development. Limiting gene development will cause bacterium issues and will interfere with the prevention of certain viruses, prokaryotes and eukaryotes. Also, genes will not be able to express their need for protein when trying to acclimate to certain conditions within the body. RNA interference causes the destruction of these, and other mRNA molecules.
