Simply put, antibiotics cannot kill viruses because viruses have different structures and replicate in a different way than bacteria. Antibiotics work by targeting the growth machinery in bacteria (not viruses) to kill or inhibit those particular bacteria. When you think about it structurally, it makes sense that an antibiotic could not work to kill a virus with a completely differentset of replicating “machinery”.

Because antibiotics are medicines which are given to treat bacterial infections.

Antibiotics have no effects whatsoever on viruses.

Most of the viral infections go in a certain period .
