Abstract
Lassa virus was isolated from specimens collected from 12 of the 13 patients involved in an epidemic of Lassa Fever which occurred in Jos during 1970. Sero-epidemiological studies indicate that Lassa virus infection occurs over a wide area of western Africa extending at least from Guinea to Nigeria.Keywords
