Viral Infections
Viral infections are illnesses caused by viruses. Common viral infections include the flu, common cold, and HIV. Symptoms vary but often include fever, fatigue, and muscle aches. Treatment typically focuses on symptom relief, as antibiotics are ineffective against viruses. Vaccinations can prevent many viral infections, offering critical protection against disease.
