Difference between Disease and Viral disease

Disease vs. Viral disease

A disease is any condition which results in the disorder of a structure or function in an organism that is not due to any external injury. A viral disease (or viral infection) occurs when an organism's body is invaded by pathogenic viruses, and infectious virus particles (virions) attach to and enter susceptible cells.

Similarities between Disease and Viral disease

Disease and Viral disease have 14 things in common (in Unionpedia): Chickenpox, Common cold, HIV/AIDS, Infection, Influenza, Pathogen, Pathogenic bacteria, Preterm birth, Sexually transmitted infection, Shingles, Transmission (medicine), Varicella zoster virus, Vertically transmitted infection, Virus latency.

Chickenpox

Chickenpox, also known as varicella, is a highly contagious disease caused by the initial infection with varicella zoster virus (VZV).

Common cold

The common cold, also known simply as a cold, is a viral infectious disease of the upper respiratory tract that primarily affects the nose.

HIV/AIDS

Human immunodeficiency virus infection and acquired immune deficiency syndrome (HIV/AIDS) is a spectrum of conditions caused by infection with the human immunodeficiency virus (HIV).

Infection

Infection is the invasion of an organism's body tissues by disease-causing agents, their multiplication, and the reaction of host tissues to the infectious agents and the toxins they produce.

Influenza

Influenza, commonly known as "the flu", is an infectious disease caused by an influenza virus.

Pathogen

In biology, a pathogen (πάθος pathos "suffering, passion" and -γενής -genēs "producer of") or a '''germ''' in the oldest and broadest sense is anything that can produce disease; the term came into use in the 1880s.

Pathogenic bacteria

Pathogenic bacteria are bacteria that can cause disease.

Preterm birth

Preterm birth, also known as premature birth, is the birth of a baby at fewer than 37 weeks gestational age.

Sexually transmitted infection

Sexually transmitted infections (STI), also referred to as sexually transmitted diseases (STD) or venereal diseases (VD), are infections that are commonly spread by sexual activity, especially vaginal intercourse, anal sex and oral sex.

Shingles

Shingles, also known as herpes zoster, is a viral disease characterized by a painful skin rash with blisters in a localized area.

Transmission (medicine)

In medicine, public health, and biology, transmission is the passing of a pathogen causing communicable disease from an infected host individual or group to a particular individual or group, regardless of whether the other individual was previously infected.

Varicella zoster virus

Varicella zoster virus or varicella-zoster virus (VZV) is one of eight herpesviruses known to infect humans.

Vertically transmitted infection

A vertically transmitted infection is an infection caused by pathogens (such as bacteria and viruses) that uses mother-to-child transmission, that is, transmission directly from the mother to an embryo, fetus, or baby during pregnancy or childbirth.

Virus latency

Virus latency (or viral latency) is the ability of a pathogenic virus to lie dormant (latent) within a cell, denoted as the lysogenic part of the viral life cycle.

Disease and Viral disease Comparison

Disease has 248 relations, while Viral disease has 184. As they have in common 14, the Jaccard index is 3.24% = 14 / (248 + 184).
