I'm just a little worried about super viruses that are more capable of killing me and that's way I read this.

Not Living Virus

The more we know about a virus or a virus family the better we can combat them. This is warfare on a very small scale. Learning the enemy to find ways to defeat it without making it harder to defeat is the main goal.

Hush little virus, don't say a word: How scientists investigate sleeping viruses. Four in five adults are infected with herpes simplex virus, say researchers, but most don't show symptoms like cold sores because the virus infection is 'latent' -- sleeping -- within the nervous system. While many virus researchers are interested in understanding what causes these sleeping viruses to wake up, or reactivate, scientists are now trying to understand what prevents the infection from going to sleep in the first place.

Viruses are like the biological robots that no one wants. Its like they have an AI that got screwed over through some bad programming. Just the fact that they can hibernate and the awaken to immediately start destroying a host is nothing short of malicious.

Not Living Virus

How viruses disarm the immune system. How do viruses that cause chronic infections, such as HIV or hepatitis c virus, manage to outsmart their hosts' immune systems? The answer to that question has long eluded scientists, but new research has uncovered a molecular mechanism that may be a key piece of the puzzle. The discovery could provide new targets for treating a wide range of diseases. Source 6s.

Virus - Living Or Not?

Rare view into the formation of viruses. For the first time, researchers have captured images of the formation of individual viruses, offering a real-time view into the kinetics of viral assembly. The research provides new insights into how to fight viruses and engineer self-assembling particles. Source 4a.

The answer is very simple.
If it is not dead, then it is a living organism.
It is true that nano organism are undefined for now but in order to make the argument my answer remains the same.

Unravelling the mystery that makes viruses infectious. Researchers have for the first time identified the way viruses like the poliovirus and the common cold virus 'package up' their genetic code, allowing them to infect cells. The findings open up the possibility that drugs or anti-viral agents can be developed that would stop such infections. Source 3k.
