"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life." Jonh 3:16
The "virus" that entered the world was and is sin. It was contracted from the devil by faith. The progenitor of the human race Adam and Eve (see Gen 3) believed the devil's word and obeyed the devil thereby coming under the devil's influence and eventually dominion (authority and power). This brought disorder and corruption into the whole world system, affecting all life including animal (see).
Another consequence of the virus is the curse pronounced by God on mankind and the earth. He had the responsibility to pronounce the curse as judge of the universe.

Gen 3:10 And he said, "I heard the sound of you in the garden, and I was afraid, because I was naked, and I hid myself."

Gen 3:17 And to Adam he said, "Because you have listened to the voice of your wife and have eaten of the tree of which I commanded you, 'You shall not eat of it,' cursed is the ground because of you; in pain you shall eat of it all the days of your life;
Gen 3:18 thorns and thistles it shall bring forth for you; and you shall eat the plants of the field.
Gen 3:19 By the sweat of your face you shall eat bread, till you return to the ground, for out of it you were taken; for you are dust, and to dust you shall return."
