There is no cure for a virus, think about the common cold.? Fortunatly OPMV is a very fragile virus and will not live off a host for very long, so safe hygenic cleaning and handling practices will stop the spread of this vivus thru collections. Unfortunately the same cannot be said about IBD a true horror of a pathogen.
I had an animal sent to me a couple of years ago that showed sus symptoms and was sent instantly to the vet and as it happened it was OPMV. Very luck, but it goes to show how easily it can get around. And NO there is no OPMV of IBD in my collection, I am way to vigilant and fussy in my cleaning and handling procedures, as everyone should be.
