The Epidemiology of a Herpes Virus Infection of New World Monkeys¹

From the Departments of Microbiology and Medicine, Presbyterian-St. Luke's Hospital, and the Department of Microbiology, University of Illinois College of Medicine, Chicago, Illinois

Abstract

Data are presented which indicate that the virus previously reported as marmoset herpes virus (Herpesvirus tamarinus) is an agent which produces nonfatal infection in nature in other New World Monkeys. It is suggested that the course of infection in these or other monkeys may mimic herpes simplex infection in the human.
