14 strains of Getah virus were isolated from a variety of mosquito species collected in Sarawak between October 1968 and February 1970. Ten strains were isolated from C. tritaeniorhynchus 7 of them at K. Tijirak. Single strains were isolated from C. gelidus, C. pseudovishnui, M. bonneae/dives and Aanopheles species. 6 of the isolates were obtained in October 1968 when Japanese encephalitis, Tembusu and Sindbis viruses were also very active. The available evidence suggest that Getah virus in Sarawak is maintained in a cycle similar to that of Japanese encephalitis virus and involves C. tritaeniorhynchus, C. gelidus and domestic pigs.
1968年10月至1970年2月期间，从砂拉越采集的多种蚊虫中分离出14株盖塔病毒。10株病毒从三带喙库蚊中分离得到，其中7株在蒂吉拉克村分离获得。单株病毒分别从白雪库蚊、伪杂鳞库蚊、棕翅按蚊/巨蚊及按蚊属蚊虫中分离得到。6株分离株于1968年10月获得，当时日本脑炎病毒、淡色库蚊病毒及辛德毕斯病毒也十分活跃。现有证据表明，砂拉越的盖塔病毒以类似于日本脑炎病毒的循环方式传播，涉及三带喙库蚊、白雪库蚊及家猪。
