a
Viruses were isolated and serologically characterized at the CDC as part of international collaborations, with the exception of the Tahyna virus isolate from China. Tahyna virus RNA, extracted from Tahyna virus isolated and serologically characterized in China, was submitted to the CDC for confirmatory testing.
