Answer:
Antibiotics are not effective for viral diseases as the virus uses the host organisms machinery to grow and divide. Therefore, it becomes difficult to aim the virus without affecting the host.

- Antibiotics generally destroy the cell wall of the pathogenic microbe and block the biosynthetic pathways. Such cell wall structures and metabolism are not found in a virus. So, antibiotics normally do not kill a virus. However, doctors prescribe antibiotics even in a viral infection, just to check opportunistic/secondary infections.
