Viruses are not technically living things. They are particles made of proteins and DNA or RNA. When talking about viruses, you will see virus treatments referring to viral deactivation, virus inactivation, virus control, and virus suppression as well as 'killing a virus'. All refer to trying to get rid of or stop the harmful spread and effects of virus infection. A reference to virus 'die-off' means what happens while trying to get rid of a virus problem. But this is not in the same literally meaning as bacteria or yeast die-off.
Digestive enzymes have excellent history in the treatment of viral diseases. Viruses may enter the body by a variety of paths. An invading virus should be subdued and immobilized by the immune system, lying dormant and harmless in the body. In the gut, certain agents of the immune system in the mucosa lining usually conquer any viruses. However, if the intestinal mucosa is damaged or is deficient this can leave an opening for a virus to be reactivated, get out of control and become industrious in the gut, even spreading to other parts of the body. The same doorway results from having a weakened immune system

an infective agent that typically consists of a nucleic acid molecule in a protein coat, is too small to be seen by light microscopy, and is able to multiply only within the living cells of a host.

an infection or disease caused by a virus.
"I've had a virus"
a harmful or corrupting influence.

2.
a piece of code which is capable of copying itself and typically has a detrimental effect, such as corrupting the system or destroying data.
Origin
:
Late Middle English (denoting the venom of a snake): from Latin, literally ‘slimy liquid, poison’. The earlier medical sense, superseded by the current use as a result of improved scientific understanding, was ‘a substance produced in the body as the result of disease, especially one capable of infecting others’.
NO, I did NOT mean anything by explicating on virus....the actual meaning and sense of the word. I found that information some while ago and thought it apposite to your post... it does clarify that the word is not from the latin "vir" meaning "man" from which we derive "virility" and "virtue"
I thought it might be interesting to others, presumably the same reason as you posted in the first place.
I am glad the books hit the right spot with you....I am actually shifting most of my books up to the Samye Ling library and while sorting through I came across these.
I would appreciate if you don't send me anything; I am in process of stripping down and clearing the decks; it seems to be an uphill battle at times.
I just bought a little trailer for the books and we are leaving, fully loaded in the early hours of tomorrow.
I repeat; please do NOT send me anything "in return".
All I wish for is your healing and wholeness.
I have seen changes through our conversation and I hope and trust that continues well with you.
late 14c., "venomous substance," from Latin virus "poison, sap of plants, slimy liquid, a potent juice," probably from PIE root *weis- "to melt away, to flow," used of foul or malodorous fluids, with specialization in some languages to "poisonous fluid" (source also of Sanskrit visam "poison," visah "poisonous;" Avestan vish- "poison;" Latin viscum "sticky substance, birdlime;" Greek ios "poison," ixos "mistletoe, birdlime;" Old Church Slavonic višnja "cherry;" Old Irish fi "poison;" Welsh gwy "fluid, water," gwyar "blood"). Main modern meaning "agent that causes infectious disease" first recorded 1728 (in reference to venereal disease). The computer sense is from 1972.
Hepatitis C is a weird bird! A and B have been easily treated. Not so for C. Although the US military denies it (liability) Hepatitis C has always been with us primarily through Yellow Fever. During WWII, the US military immunized soldiers with Yellow Fever anti-virus, primarily for the Pacific Islands, where it was rampant. Since that time, the virus has self-modified to give us the present form of Hep C. Many people are confused as to what a virus actually is. Bacteria are 'live biologicals'. They are alive and so can be killed! Soap disintegrates the outer shell of bacteria and antibiotics code for bonding sites, so that the bacteria cannot access a cell. On the other hand, viruses cannot be killed...because technically they're not alive to begin with! They are mechanical proteins. If you look at a virus via electron micrographs (the only way they can be seen, since they are beyond microscopic) they appear as small landing craft, the bulbous head holding the deviant DNA and the rest of the device utilized for cell injection. Viruses have been found viable after five thousand years! The fact that they are not alive, suggests that they never 'evolved', rather were manufactured; perhaps by one of the two previous civilization which have occupied planet Earth in the far past...biological warfare! The only way to 'beat' a virus is to wait until the human body codes for it (if it doesn't kill you first)or to create an anti-coding medication
