Viral Infection
have a protein coat and genetic DNA or RNA core, can't survive without a host, attach to cells to reproduce, they reprogram the cells to make new viruses until the cells burst and die
vaccines help prevent viral infections, some viral infections have antivirals medications, but not all

Differences
-
AIDS
the condition that occurs when HIV has damaged the immune system so bad that they are at high risk to get other infections
Lysogenic
attaches to surface host
enters host
replicates the virus DNA
cell replicates as normal, producing daughter cells with the new prophage
