A virus is a parasitic form of life which undergo Darwinian evolution that can live only inside a living cell. (It hijacks the cell's molecular machinery to reproduce itself.) With respect to Mars this means that if there are no native Martian microbes, there are no native Martian Viruses either.
Viruses will come with humans to Mars and be part of a settlement biological system.
