Different levels of drug solubility will effect the zone of inhabition which may not have any connection to the drugs effectivness as an antimicrobial.
why is the disk technique not a perfect indication of how the drug will perform in vivo?
The Kirby-Bauer methods is a standardized system that takes all variables into consideration: The recommended medium in this test is Mueller-Hinton II agar. Its pH should be between 7.2 and 7.4, and it should be poured to a uniform thickness of 4mm in the petri plate. This requires 60 ml in a 150 mm plate and 25 ml in a 100 mm plate. For certain fastidious organisms, 5% defibrinated sheep blood is added to the medium. Inoculation of the surface of the medium is made with a cotton swab from a broth culture. High-potency disks are used that may be placed on the agar with a mechanical dispenser or sterile forceps. To secure the disks to the medium, it is necessary to press them down ont the agar. After 16 to 18 hours incubation, the plates are examined and the diameters of the zones are measured to the nearest millimeter. In this case, we are measuring what is called the "zone of inhibition" or where no growth occurs. And lastly, record your results. The zone diameter is compared to a standard table for that drug and concentration, and the organism is reported as sensitive, intermediate, or resistant. For a drug with poor solubility, however, the zone of inhibition indicating that the microbe is sensitive will usually be smaller than for another drug that is more soluble and has diffused more widely. Results obtained by the disk-diffusion method (AKA Kirby-Bauer test) are often inadequate for many clinical purposes. However, the test is simple and inexpensive and is most often used when more sophisticated laboratory facilities are not available.
This is because viruses do not make proteins on their own, so they do not perform transcription or translation, either, which would make this process pointless.

Variables such as the effect of serum, the body's pH, and ionic content, and Oxygen level, how the drug is metabolized and excreted; as well as the side effects of the drug

Variable such as serum, body pH, ionic content, O2 level are not tested. Also you can not tell how the drug is metabolized and excreted or the side effects of the drug.
