    Very cool article. Looks like this applies only to bacterial and possibly fungal but not viral infections. Am I right?

    Interesting. Thank you, James.

    All viruses contain nucleic acid, though whether this is ds/ss deoxyribonucleic (DNA) or ds/ss ribonucleic (RNA) is subject to virus type.

    However I’m neither a geneticist nor a Virologist. Corrections are welcome.
