Nonhuman primates (NHPs) shipped to the United States must be quarantined and monitored for evidence of infectious diseases transmissible to humans. During May-October 1992, CDC investigated reports from NHP importers of mycobacterial infections in NHPs recently imported from Mauritius. This report describes a review of tuberculosis (TB) in all 249 imported shipments of CDC-permitted NHP species in the United States from June 1990 through May 1993 and updates recommendations regarding the identification and control of TB in imported NHPs and in workers exposed to such animals.
运往美国的非人灵长类动物（NHPs）必须接受检疫并监测是否有可传染给人类的传染病迹象。1992年5月至10月期间，美国疾病控制与预防中心（CDC）对非人灵长类动物进口商报告的近期从毛里求斯进口的非人灵长类动物发生分枝杆菌感染的情况展开了调查。本报告介绍了对1990年6月至1993年5月期间美国疾病控制与预防中心批准进口的所有249批非人灵长类动物物种中结核病（TB）情况的审查，并更新了关于识别和控制进口非人灵长类动物及接触此类动物的工作人员中结核病的建议。
