Abstract

This article analyzes the key biological, morphological, and functional differences between viruses and bacteria. It examines in detail their mechanisms of action on the human body, modes of reproduction, pathogenicity, diagnostic methods, and treatment approaches. Differentiating viral from bacterial infections is critical in clinical practice, as misdiagnosis can result in complications or ineffective therapy. The article provides valuable insights for physicians, microbiologists, and medical students, emphasizing the importance of accurate diagnostics and appropriate treatment protocols.
