Resistant/cleared

Research Question

  • The mechanisms responsible for animal survival to infection are not well understood

Research Gaps and Challenges

  • Investigate the mechanisms responsible for animal survival to infection

State Of the Art

  • Homologous protective immunity develops in pigs surviving acute infection with moderately virulent or experimentally attenuated variants of ASFV. These animals develop long-term resistance to homologous, but rarely to heterologous, virus challenge
