Bacteria is a living cell. It reproduces by dividing itself. Most bacteria can grow on non-living surfaces, like coins, hands, tables, dustbin, etc. When a bacteria enters our body, the toxins it produces can damage our cells it has invaded.
Mmm.. Bacteria sound to me like Star War invader.. they come, they destroy. I believe if we take note about personal hygiene, we will cut down the chances of getting bacteria infection.
Virus is not a living organisms. It requires a living host (people, animal, plant) to survive and multiply. When a virus enters our body, it invades our cells and takes over the cell machinery, redirecting the cell to produce the virus. The virus may eventually kill the host cells.
Virus sound to me like Alien.. they come to parasitize at a living thing, mutate the cells, and eventually take over!
By understanding the differences, we will know that certain medications that are effective against bacteria are not effective against virus, and vise-versa.
'A man's spirit sustains him in sickness, but a crushed spirit who can bear?' ~ Proverbs 18:14
