Abstract
The present application relates to compositions and methods for: (a) preventing or treating viral infections; and/or (b) preventing the transmission and/or spread of infections. In some embodiments, the present application provides chimeric proteins comprising a target-binding moiety that specifically binds to a virus, and a positively charged mucoadhesive peptide fragment. Compositions comprising the chimeric proteins described herein are useful for preventing or treating viral infections, preventing the transmission of a viral infection from an infected individual to a non-infected individual, and for preventing the spread of a viral infection within a population of individuals.
