Why can't you prescribe antibiotics to treat a viral infection???

A virus lack the metabolic machinery common to other microorganisms

A virus is an ultramicroscopic particle capable of causing disease. It differs from other disease-causing organisms like bacteria, nematodes etc, because it has no metabolic system of its own but relies on its host system for survival and replication.
