A virus being different from other pathogens, such as bacteria or fungi, does not inherently make it more dangerous. The danger posed by a virus depends on various factors, including its mode of transmission, virulence, and the host's immune response. Some viruses can cause severe disease in certain populations, while others may be less harmful. Ultimately, each pathogen's risk level must be assessed on a case-by-case basis.
