    Journal: Isr J Med Sci; 1993; 29(6-7):393-5. PubMed ID: 8102355.
    Abstract:
    HTLV1 antibodies were tested in a group of 740 Ethiopian immigrants who arrived in Israel in Operation Solomon, 1991. HTLV1 antibodies were not found in a single individual. This survey and previous ones conducted on 314 immigrants of the 1984-85 Operation Moses suggest that HTLV1 infection is not present among Ethiopian immigrants residing in Israel.
