Abstract
⺠HPIVs evade the innate immune response and replicate efficiently in respiratory epithelium. ⺠Cellular pathology in ex vivo epithelium is limited. ⺠Previous homotypic HPIV infections protect against severe disease, not against infection. ⺠There are no licensed vaccines or specific antiviral drugs for the HPIVs.
