Viruses cause diseases primarily by invading host cells and replicating within them. Once inside, they hijack the cellular machinery to produce new viral particles, which can lead to cell damage or death. This disruption of normal cellular function can trigger immune responses, resulting in inflammation and symptoms associated with viral infections. Additionally, some viruses can cause chronic infections or alter cellular processes, leading to long-term health issues.
