摘要: A cross-sectional study was undertaken to determine the current prevalence of leptospirosis and hantaviral infections, socio-demographic characteristics risk factors infected patients, in Kandy, Sri Lanka. This report discusses serological evidence hantavirus infections among 105 suspected 8 whom had antibodies. Serotyping ELISA showed that these patients high optical density values for Thailand virus. Most sera focus reduction neutralization test titer against virus higher than Seoul virus, thereby suggesting antibodies found Lanka are different from but closely related These findings imply infection appears be due a similar Epidemiological analysis revealed association between not statistically significant.
