Does this mean that, if your ferrets have already been exposed but

still test negative, that it's OK to put a ADV+ ferret with them?

Once they have been exposed, they can't get ADV from a future
ferret?

I can't seem to ask the question right, but maybe someone will
understand it.




I would like to know myself. It seems that some ferrets are
resistant to ADV.
They stay negative after repetive exposure. (I'm going off what was
said
earlier on this list.) It would be an important fact in ADV
research, and
these type of ferrets could be a control or have something usefull
in
preventing or stopping ADV.
