Why would a drug that damages capsules help treat a viral infection
ss7ja [257]

Drug that demages capsule is used to treat viral infection because Curing a viral infection  antibiotics are useless against viral infections. This is because viruses are so simple that they use their host cells to perform their activities for them. So antiviral drugs work differently to antibiotics, by interfering with the viral enzymes instead.  

Antiviral drugs are currently only effective against a few viral diseases, such as influenza, herpes, hepatitis B and C and HIV – but research is ongoing. A naturally occurring protein, called interferon (which the body produces to help fight viral infections), can now be produced in the laboratory and is used to treat hepatitis C infections.

Dogs and coyotes are from the same class, family and genus (Mammalia, Canidae, Canis).
This is almost enough for their offspring to be viable. But if the DNA is similar (which it is) offspring the chances of viable and fertile offspring is high almost at 100%.

Hope it helped,
