    Bacteria are capable of living alone. Viruses are said to be alive only when inside a living cell.



    Bacteria have cell organelles and show life activities. Virus are just
    a core of DNA or RNA surrounded by a sheath of protein and can only
    show reproduction while in a living cell.



    Bacteria are intercellular organisms( they live in-between cells ).
    Viruses are intracellular organisms ( they live within/inside cells )



    There are many useful bacteria, that help in processes like
    nitrification and lactification. Viruses on the other hand are always
    disease causing. In fact, the term 'Virulesence', which is used for a
    disease causing organism, is derived from the word Virus'
