The ‘common cold’ is a virus. Viruses are creatures, same as you and me. Viruses infect other creatures in order to survive and procreate. Our bodies do their best to become resistant to viruses so we survive and can procreate, and viruses do their best to overcome that resistance so they survive and can procreate.
