Modulation of innate immune responses by influenza-specific ovine polyclonal antibodies used for prophylaxis.

In the event of a novel influenza A virus pandemic, prophylaxis mediated by antibodies provides an adjunct control option to vaccines and antivirals. This strategy is particularly pertinent to unvaccinated populations at risk during the lag time to produce and distribute an effective vaccine. Theref...
