In spring 2002, an intensive avian serosurvey was initiated in Jamaica, Puerto Rico, and Mexico. We collected >1,600 specimens from resident and nonresident neotropical migratory birds before their northerly migrations. Plaque reduction neutralization test results indicated specific neutralizing antibodies to West Nile virus in 11 resident species from Jamaica.
2002年春季，在牙买加、波多黎各和墨西哥开展了一项密集的鸟类血清学调查。在新热带区候鸟向北迁徙之前，我们从留鸟和非留鸟中采集了1600多个样本。蚀斑减少中和试验结果表明，来自牙买加的11种留鸟体内存在针对西尼罗河病毒的特异性中和抗体。
