Best Answer

They do multiply and it's accomplished by injecting DNA into a host cell (bacteria in this case) and forcing the cell to synthesize the virus DNA, effectively creating more bacteriophages with the bacteria's own protein. The bacteria eventually bursts and the new bacteriophages are released to live happily ever after.
