Maybe? Although viruses that we are naturally exposed to on a daily basis don't routinely bypass the mucous membrane barrier, and do not roam freely throughout our bodies. And they normally do have a targeting mechanism that allows them to selectively infect certain types of cells. And in any case, viruses are supposed to be bad for the organism; so I am not sure how this consideration helps.
I mean viruses target everything and nothing, and mutate insanely rapidly. I imagine the majority that enter our bodies aren’t able to perform any function, and then the ones that can will opportunistically infect anything without regard for the consequences.
As for whether or not viruses are bad for us, I mean I don’t think we have any choice in the matter anyway, they’re even more numerous than bacteria, and absolutely everywhere.
I wonder how many viruses infect our cells every day vs how many “lipid viruses” are in a standard Moderna Covid shot.
