Do we need to worry about resistance?

Overview

Learning Objectives:

  1. Describe the broad biological and evolutionary processes by which antiviral resistance can emerge in RNA viruses.
  2. Outline mechanisms of antiviral resistance development in coronaviruses with nucleoside analogues, drawing on evidence from human COVID-19 literature.
  3. Describe the implications of subtherapeutic dosing, prolonged treatment, and immunocompromised states for driving antiviral resistance in feline coronaviruses.
  4. Evaluate findings from a rapid risk assessment tool regarding the likelihood of clinically significant antiviral resistance emergence in feline coronaviruses.
  5. Discuss strategies to minimise the risk of antiviral resistance development in FIP treatment protocols.
