Abstract
ECHO type 6 virus was isolated from whole blood and serum specimens obtained 3 days after onset and on the 2nd day of paralysis of a fatal illness in which there were no meningeal signs. Infectivity tit rations performed in human amnion monolayer cultures revealed approximately 65 TCD50 of virus/ml of whole blood. Virus could not be demonstrated in pharyngeal secretions, stools, CSF or post-mortem materials. Neutralizing antibodies were not present in the virus-containing serum.Keywords
