I was thinking... and have an opinion on ADV.  I am truly nobody to have
such a brazen opinion, and have little formal education.  So please take
it easy on me...I'm just trying to learn.  I feel so strongly about this.
My question is.... can any vets, vet techs, or more ferret knowledgeable
people than myself either disprove or validate this?  And what are your
thoughts?
 
"They say that some ferrets that test positive for ADV antibodies may never
come down with the full spectrum disease.  I privately question this... did
they not say this about AIDS all along?  But if the person is alive long
enough to contract the disease does not every person that tests for HIV
eventually come down with full blown AIDS?  I may be incorrect with this.
Even if I am I feel certain that those cases would not be the majority."
 
For example if a ferret is exposed and then tests positively for ADV at say
one year old or less.....if he were able to live for ten plus years....
wouldn't he evennnntually come down with the disease?
