Antiviral efficacy of favipiravir (T-705) against canine distemper virus infection in vitro
Why it matters: This paper reports in vitro activity for favipiravir against CDV; a later 2025 UC Davis screen found no protective effect in its own model, illustrating how in vitro signal does not always translate.
