After an outbreak of West Nile virus (WNV) infections in Slidell, Louisiana, in 2002, we detected neutralizing antibodies to WNV in 13 of 120 mammals, representing five of six species sampled. Seroprevalence was measured in opossum, Didelphis virginiana (75%, n = 8), raccoons, Procyon lotor (60%, n = 5), black rats, Rattus rattus (6%, n = 36), hispid cotton rats, Sigmodon hispidus (4%, n = 24), and eastern gray squirrels, Sciurus carolinensis (2%, n = 43).
2002年路易斯安那州斯莱德尔爆发西尼罗河病毒（WNV）感染后，我们在120只哺乳动物中的13只身上检测到了针对WNV的中和抗体，这些哺乳动物代表了所采样的六个物种中的五个。在负鼠（弗吉尼亚负鼠，血清阳性率75%，n = 8）、浣熊（北美浣熊，血清阳性率60%，n = 5）、黑家鼠（黑鼠，血清阳性率6%，n = 36）、刚毛棉鼠（刚毛棉鼠，血清阳性率4%，n = 24）和东部灰松鼠（卡罗来纳松鼠，血清阳性率2%，n = 43）中测量了血清阳性率。
