Virology focuses on the attributes of viruses, such as their structure, how they are classified, and how they are being evolved. It also describes how they infect healthy cells for reproduction, their interaction with an organism's physiology and immune systems, diseases caused by them, their isolation techniques and their use in researches as well as therapy. it also covers parasitic particles of genetic material that are contained in the protein coat, as well as virus-like agents. Viral epidemiology determines the branch of virology.
