Well, "the virus's susceptibility" can be expressed as "the virus' susceptibility" and then "the virus susceptibility"?

To make the question more concrete, here we get a title:
The Susceptibility of the Virus to Ethyl Ether
Can we rewrite it as:
The Virus Susceptibility to Ethyl Ether
@oristarA,
Might not s/b “virus’ “ to sidestep the remote probability that all viruses are susceptible

Thank you.
But "virus'" looks odd to me.

Yes, to me too Ori
No way out.
So we'd better just use "The Susceptibility of the Virus" there?
