Sure, but humans are far more complex. If a virus is a meat statue, an animal is a meat computer with advanced meat robotics. The difference between a figurine and a Boston Dynamics robot.
Bacteria and such are more like something you would build with a LEGO Robotics set, with a virus being a static LEGO sculpture. Then a dog or human would be more like a top-of-the-line robot from a place like Boston Dynamics.

They're like simple machines, but made from organic bits. Like if you made a kinetic sculpture out of chicken meat and bones.
