A virus will attach itself to one of your cells, and inject it's DNA into the cell, causing it to become a virus-making factory.

So a cell can be a virus because viruses can consist of only one cell. The only reason the virus would cause harm is because millions of them can be reproduced quickly asexually and completely invade a certain part/or all of the host body.
