  • Title: Semliki forest virus: cause of a fatal case of human encephalitis.
    Author: Willems WR, Kaluza G, Boschek CB, Bauer H, Hager H, Schütz HJ, Feistner H.
    Journal: Science; 1979 Mar 16; 203(4385):1127-9. PubMed ID: 424742.
    Abstract:
    A fatal case of human encephalitis has been observed for which our results indicate that Semliki Forest virus (SFV) was the etiologic agent. This is surprising in view of the fact that this virus, which has been widely studied, was believed to be one of the arboviruses nonpathogenic for man. Described are the clinical course, the virological examinations performed, and the histopathological findings in the central nervous system.
