Abstract:
Every virus is a parasite that cannot exist on its own and is fully dependent on its carrier. This is the basic condition of its existence. The parasite must have its host, and thus is a living cell, but it is generally claimed that the virus can exist without a carrier for 2 to 5 seconds, during which it is transmitted to another species. Following these viral pathways is not easy and has not been fully investigated. However, this is a key issue that can lead to a major paradigm shift in the way we perceive viruses. The primary carrier, however, cannot be host organ cells because they could easily damage them. In terms of the mechanism of existence and transmission, the following could be the most suitable carriers of the virus: bacteria, yeast or other single-cell organisms.
