Abstract

Summary No evidence has been obtained from the 1959 outbreak of cholera in Bangkok, Thailand that a viral agent played a significant role in the pathogenesis of the diarrheal disease observed. From one patient an enterovirus (Thai C-18) was isolated similar to the Coxsackie A Group of viruses which was not identical with any of the recognized human enteroviruses. Some of the properties of this agent have been described.
