Answer:

Viruses have different forms and they can only grow,divide and live in the body of the host.

Antivirals focus on inhibiting viral replication. Viruses are harder to study biochemically. Generally, viruses are much smaller than bacteria.

Unexpected side effects are possible in the application of any antibiotic or antiviral towards treating infected humans.

Bacteria are cells, we are cells. One wishes to have an antibiotic that affects only the invading bacterial cells. Risks to human cells must be minimized.

Similarly, for antivirals, one wishes to goop up their normal RNA / DNA replication processes, BUT without gooping up normal RNA / DNA processes in either the healthy uninfected or virally infected cells of humans.

You can study bacteria out of tissues or without using invaded cells by growing them in a nutrient medium.

Viruses however do not grow outside of some living host. Sometimes they will grow in a tissue culture, live host cells necessary. This is more complex than bacterial cultures, see?

Viruses are far more difficult to manipulate insofar as the study process.

Explanation: Anti_ viral drugs more difficult then making anti bacterial medicines BECAUSE anti bacteria block the formation of cell wall of the bacteria.

=) Viruses have few bio mechanism of their own.. Which enters the host cell and use machinery for the life process.
