Will the Mobile Virus Come only in symbian phones or other phones too??

Hey bro Pathik i chckd out Avast's DB for mobile viruses and found out that it could detect only about 50 symbian viruses while the mobile AVs have DB of abt 300!!
Though most of the common viruses are there in Avast's DB bt its quite less as compared to mobile AVs and so not very dependable
