Treatment of A549 cells with α2,3 linkage-specific sialyltransferase increased infectivities of both hPIV1 and hPIV3, whereas α2,6 linkage-specific sialyltransferase treatment increased only hPIV3 infectivity. [ncbi.nlm.nih.gov]

Treatment: Most infections in adults and older children are mild and recovery takes place without treatment, unless the person is very old or has an abnormal immune system. [en.vircell.com]

Prevention and Treatment Currently, there is no vaccine to prevent HPIV infection. However, researchers are trying to develop vaccines. Also, there is no specific antiviral treatment for HPIV illness. [cdc.gov]
