Answer:
some viruses like HIV virus (that is a kind of corona ) has reverse transcriptase enzyme in their ssRNA which helps them to change their DNA seq. every time they replicate. This change is unpridictable which makes it hard to design a specific antiviral drug for some kind of viruses ..

viruses have a special enzyme known as the reverse transcriptase. ,
Explanation:
- They use this enzyme to convert there are any into DNA and as a result of this day have excellent capacity to update or to change their genetic sequences.
- As a result of this it is very difficult to make an effective antiviral drug against the virus since the only way to kill a virus is to break them but viruses have capacity to change their nuclic acid sequence into another form so that drug cannot effectively identify the mutated strain of the virus.
