Virus
From Tardis Wiki, the free Doctor Who reference
A virus was a biological disease-causing agent, although the term itself could also apply to a malicious technological computer program.
Biological
In the case of a biological virus, it could be transmitted through biological fluids (blood, etc.) or through basic contact.
The Faction Paradox, for example, introduced a virus into the Third Doctor as he regenerated, altering his biodata. (EDA: Interference - Book One)
Another virus originated from a mutation in a mood drug in the upper levels of New New York on New Earth; this one, however, was airbourne. (DW: Gridlock)
Technological
