These are red and white cells being attacked by a virus.

Some of the guesses:
Ted Hampton

A virus attacking a blood cell

Ed Mascio

Three Dimensional view of human blood cells showing concave surface probably photographed thru a SEM microscope @ 25,000x

audrey

I think it is red blood cells with bacteria, or maybe cancer… And the purple are white…

Ted Hampton

I’m with Mark… just taught those virus concepts today!

V. Mueller

Red blood cells, white blood cells and eosinophils through an electron scanning microscope with color enhancement

Ted Hampton

Too big for a virus. You are correct about the scanning electron microscope with color enhancement though
