Relationsip of Moscow 2 Virus of Equine Encephalomyelitis to Rabies

Abstract

Summary

From the serological and immunological reactions, from the difficulty in filtration, from the particle size, from the absence of virus in the blood and organs, from the ability to infect dogs both intracerebrally and subcutaneously, and from the presence of intracytoplasmic inclusions, although slightly atypical and not inclusive for all animals, the Moscow 2 virus may now be classified with the rabies strains rather than with the American viruses of equine encephalomyelitis as has formerly been suggested.
