Abstract
A group of 57 spider monkeys (Ateles geoffreyi or Ateles fusciceps robustus) from Central and South America were studied for their susceptibility to infection with poliomyelitis virus and Col SK virus. The animals were found to be highly susceptible to infection with 3 strains of Type I poliomyelitis and Col SK virus but were completely refractory to infection with 2 strains each of Type II or Type HI poliomyelitis virus conferred various degrees of protection against reinfection with one strain of Type I poliomyelitis virus.Keywords
