    Document: In an OV-treated patient pre-existing antiviral immunity can be a formidable barrier to efficacy, particularly if the virus is administered intravenously. However, pre-existing antiviral immunity in caregivers and patient contacts provides reassuring protection against virus transmission. Conversely, when this particular efficacy barrier is circumvented by using OVs engineered for antibody evasion or selected for low seroprevalence, the risk of epidemic spread in the human population, unchecked by pre-existing herd immunity, looms larger.
