Are viruses a form of life?, yes

Meh not sold generally although I am leaning to believing it's Chinese Chernobyl moment

why does the definition matter in this instance?

Viruses not really living, but

Incorrect

they are mechanical in nature

doesn't REALLY matter

They reproduce IN A WAY

Dormancy isn't the same as death

A virus does replicate

so do dirty socks

There are two main definitions of life viruses don't fulfill the reproduction part at all

They hijack the protein synthesis of a cell

your point?

JUST REGULAR FLU SEASON SHIT

If the virus is not alive, it wouldn't be able to do any of that

5 TRILLION

Yeah doesn't mean they're not made lol

@Nilly So it's parasitic. Plenty of living organisms are.

Actually viruses look very very made

5 TRILLION?

If something isn't alive it would have no ability to replicate

Yeah, but its not living

remember last flu season when the stock markets crashed?

yeah bro

happens all the time

we could be looking at a 1929 type crash

It is definetly a form of life

It is just a clump of protiens

That’s like five thousands of thousand millions.
