Viruses are prokaryotes and not Eukaryotes. Therefore they are not alive. Since it is not considered to be alive they do not belong in the 5 kingdom classification; Monera, Fungi, Plantae, Animalia, Protista.

Bacteria are living once celled organisms and belong to either bacteria or Archaea.

*Viruses not considered alive because they need a host to be able to reproduce. They cannot reproduce on their own.
