ABSTRACT
During the course of virological investigations in Guyana over a ten year period, 1956-1966, the following viruses were isolated Arboviruses Eastern equine encephalitis and western equine encephalitis (Rupununi, 1959), eastern equine encephalitis (Coastal area, 1962 and 1966) and Cache Valley (Coastal area, 1966). Enterovirus Poliovirus types 1 and 3 (Coastal area, 1962) Coxsackie A4 (Coastal area, 1962) and Coxsackie B3 (Coastal area, 1963). Other viruses Rabies (North West district, 1960, Rupununi, 1966). Eastern equine encephalitis, western equine encephalitis, Cache Valley and rabies were recovered from equines; poliovirus types 1 and 3, Coxsackie B3, Coxsackie A4 and rabies were recovered from humans. In addition, selological evidence was obtained for the past occurrence of infection with Mayaro, IIheus and yellow fever viruses in the Amer-Indians of the Rupununi and with IIheus, St. Louis encephalitis and dengue in residents of the Coastal area. Outbreaks of illness in equines due to viruses occurred on the coast in 1953, 1958, and 1966 and on the Rupununi Savannahs in 1959. An outbreak of poliomyelitis due to poliovirus type 1 occurred on the coast in 1962. At least three members (possibly five) of one family from the North West district died from rabies, presumably bat transmitted, in 1960 (AU)
