Virology and infectious diseases

Virology is a branch of microbiology that studies viruses and viral illnesses. Infectious diseases are mostly caused by pathogens, which are microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses, fungus, or parasites. Diseases are caused by some of these organisms. Germs are the primary cause of many infections. By touching, eating, drinking, or inhaling anything, we can become infected. Vaccines can also help to avoid infections like measles and chickenpox. Hand washing is also a good way to avoid getting sick.
