bacteria have the DNA as well as the tools (such as ribosomes and proteins) in order to reproduce themselves. While viruses only contain limited DNA and no not have the necessary tools.

bacteria reproduces asexually. a virus reproduces by invading a host cell casing the cell to make copies of the DNA(RNA). destroying the host cell and releasing the virus.
