Wear your favourite virus as a paper ring!
Viruses cause different diseases when they infect a host cell. They use the cell's own machinery to replicate themselves and kill it when they are released. All living organisms are infected by viruses. Pandemics such as COVID-19 were started when viruses crossed between species.
