Summary

Introduction

A viral disease (infection) occurs when an organism’s body is invaded by pathogenic viruses and infectious virus particles (virions) attach and enter susceptible cells [1-10]. There are 21 families which cause disease in humans. 5 families are ds DNA, 3 are nonenveloped (Adenoviridae, Papillomaviridae and Polyomaviridae) and 2 are enveloped (Herpesviridae and Poxviridae). 7 families are ssRNA of which 3 are nonenveloped (Astroviridae, Caliciviridae and Picornaviridae) and 4 enveloped (Coronoviridaer, Flaviviridae, Retroviridae and Togaviridae).
