Viruses once entered into our body replicate using our body cell's machinery.So they insert their genetic material into our genetic material...and new viruses formed tend to show some similarities with our body cells...because they have been produces using our cells machinery...so it becomes difficult for antibiotics to identify the viruses.ie. it becomes difficult to differentiate viruses form our body cells...so antiobiotics are not effective for viruses. At the same time, viruses are also very quickly evolving as their genetic material is RNA.

So, You got the answer...

Thank You

Antibiotics are only for killing bacterias as they have their own metabolism. ..own cell.
But viruses don't have their own mechanism and they use the host cell for their replication....
That's why it is unable to kill viruses with antibiotics.....
