If a virus is not fully wiped out during a regimen of antivirals, treatment creates a bottleneck in the viral population that selects for resistance, and there is a chance that a resistant strain may repopulate the host. [53] Viral treatment mechanisms must therefore account for the selection of resistant viruses.
Treatments for influenza include a range of medications and therapies that are used in response to disease influenza. Treatments may either directly target the influenza virus itself; or instead they may just offer relief to symptoms of the disease, while the body's own immune system works to recover from infection.

Immune responses to viral gene therapies pose a challenge to successful treatment. [38] However, responses to viral vectors at immune privileged sites such as the eye may be reduced compared to other sites of the body. [38] [39] As with other forms of virotherapy, prevention of off-target genome editing is a concern.
