Yes, the virus can and will spread, it just needs a vector or means of
transmission. Taking a guess, slugs might be a mode of transmission, in other
plants those insects that feed on the sap of plants are vectors for viral
transmission.
Should the plants be destroyed-if virus infected-yes.
I am sure that there are many different viruses that infect Hosta, but few
effect appearance and growth, those that do should be eliminated from our
plants as soon as they are determined.
