Isolations of St. Louis Encephalitis Virus from Domestic Pigeons, Columba Livia
Abstract
Summary
Two isolations of St. Louis encephalitis virus were made from homing pigeons in central Florida. One of the isolates was obtained from the brain of a dead pigeon and the second from the blood of an apparently healthy one. Twelve of 32 pigeons in the domestic flock from which the isolates were obtained died.
