Multiple Viral Threats Amplify Call for Preparedness with Broad-Spectrum Antivirals
Wednesday, 8th January at 6:30 am
SHELTON, CT / ACCESSWIRE / January 8, 2025 / Dr. Anil Diwan, President of NanoViricides, Inc. (NYSE American: NNVC) (the "Company"), comments on the many viruses that could cause pandemics that are going around already.
This season, two different genotypes of H5N1 bird flu, namely (a) the severe and lethal form D1.1 that has spread globally in birds, and (b) the less severe B3.13 genotype widely spread in diary cattle in North America are causing major concerns even as Seasonal Influenza cases abound.
In addition to that, in the USA, and globally, there are significant numbers of cases of COVID-19, RSV, and hMPV as expected seasonally, that cause various respiratory syndromes from common colds to bronchitis to pneumonia. Norovirus, a primarily gastro-enteric infection that causes vomiting and severe diarrhea has surged up as well.
All of these are RNA viruses that evolve rapidly in the field. All of these can develop resistance to vaccines, antibodies, and existing small chemical drugs (if any) soon after they face such countermeasures in the field.
This is because the resistant virus species that develop in a patient survive and thereafter infect new hosts, thereby proliferating and spreading further, as we have witnessed repeatedly during the COVID-19 pandemic.
Developing specific vaccines and antibodies against each virus strain of each virus type as it evolves in the field is untenable and has poor economic and public health benefits that are short-lived at best [1] .
