Some human diseases caused by viruses include influenza, HIV/AIDS, COVID-19, measles, and hepatitis. These viruses can result in a range of symptoms from mild to severe, and can have long-lasting effects on health. Vaccines and antiviral medications are often used to prevent and treat viral infections.
A virus consists essentially of genetic material surrounded by a protein coat. The genetic material can be either DNA or RNA. The protein coat is called the capsid. Some viruses also have a lipid envelope outside the protein coat, obtained form the host cell membrane when the virus leaves the host cell where it has reproduced. Examples of diseases caused by viruses are: herpes, smallpox, hepatitis B, influenza, measles, mumps, rubella, rabies, polio and the common cold. See: http://www.ucmp.berkeley.edu/alllife/virus.html
