Why are antibodies successfully able to control bacterial infections but not viral infections? Explain

Answered by xKinGx

Antibiotics are useless against viral infections. This is because viruses are so simple that they use their host cells to perform their activities for them. So antiviral drugs work differently to antibiotics, by interfering with the viral enzymes instead.
