Mutations are very common in all organisms. There are various mechanisms of repair in most cellular organisms that detect and correct these mutations both as they occur and afterwards.
Viruses are very simple organisms and contain very few proteins. Repair mechanisms are limited to the simplest mechanisms of the host cell. Since much fewer of the mutations are repaired, it is easy for a mutation to become permanently incorporated into a virus genome.
Viruses also frequently use single stranded DNA or RNA, in which case mutations are much harder to detect, even for the simple repair mechanisms that may take place during the host cell's replication processes.
I was tranfixed as I watched the man mutate into a werewolf.
Well, it is possible it could evolve from Rabies or other agression diseases. It is very possible they could mutate it from the diseases or make it as an biological weapon.
The H5N1 virus is considered highly pathogenic and has the potential to cause severe illness in humans. It also has a high mortality rate, making it a serious concern for public health organizations and authorities worldwide. The fear is largely due to the virus's ability to rapidly spread and potentially lead to a global pandemic if not contained effectively.
The most probable fate of a newly emerging virus that causes high mortality in its host is that it will either evolve to become less deadly over time as it adapts to its host, or it will be controlled through public health measures and medical interventions. However, if left unchecked, the virus may continue to spread and cause significant harm until a means of control is implemented.
They are called oncogenes.
The time it takes a virus to mutate varies depending on the virus. However, viruses mutate frequently so it is very difficult to completely eradicate a virus.
Yes, the measles virus does mutate but only slightly.
The HIV virus is highly unstable, meaning that it does mutate quickly. That has been part of the dilemma in finding a cure, or even a vaccine against the virus.

Marik the Monster's face started to mutate when full moon came.
It is certainly possible. The virus might mutate, and the mutated version start spreading. Or the existing virus might spread in places where it hasn't been before.It is certainly possible.

Because the virus will mutate. When you get the flu more than once each time it is a different virus.
If you are talking about virus as in illnesses, then it is because they are immune to antibiotics and mutate. If you are talking about computer viruses they are hard to totally eliminate as they constantly mutate

Yes I even heard on the news that Iran is trying to make h1n1 virus mutate with the aids virus
Yes, viruses evolve over time. They will usually mutate into a stronger virus. When viruses face something new that could stop them, they usually mutate.
