Morbidity and Mortality Weekly Report Vol. 41, no. 36
Epidemiologic Notes and Reports Seroconversion to Simian Immunodeficiency Virus in Two Laboratory Workers Simian immunodeficiency viruses (SIVs) are lentiviruses that cause acquired immunodeficiency syndrome (AIDS)-like illnesses in susceptible macaque monkeys and are used in the study of AIDS (1). In November 1988, CDC published guidelines to minimize the risk of SIV transmission to research laboratory workers (2). This report summarizes the investigation of two laboratory workers who seroconverted following occupational exposures to SIV.
