Plasma antibodies from humans infected with zoonotic simian foamy virus do not inhibit cell-to-cell transmission of the virus despite binding to the surface of infected cells.

Zoonotic simian foamy viruses (SFV) establish lifelong infection in their human hosts.Despite repeated transmission of SFV from nonhuman primates to Right Handlebar humans, neither transmission between human hosts nor severe clinical manifestations have been reported.We aim to study the immune responses elicited by chronic infection with this retro
