Experimental infection with the XJ-Clone 3 strain of Junín virus in laboratory bred Akodon molinae, a cricetid rodent inhabiting the borders of endemic Argentine hemorrhagic fever areas, was studied. Suckling animals inoculated intracerebrally proved sensitive and became chronically infected. Sixty

Junin virus, the etiological agent of Argentine hemorrhagic fever, produces in man a disease mainly characterized by hemorrhagic alterations, commonly accompanied by neurological symptoms, and leading to 10% mortality. Intracerebral inoculation in 10-day-old rats or intraperitoneal inoculation in 2-
Argentine hemorrhagic fever (Junín virus) is a human viral disease for which immune therapy proves effective, though a late neurologic syndrome is occasionally associated with the treatment. We attempted to determine in the infected marmoset Callithrix jacchus whether immune therapy leads to protect
## Abstract Experimental infection of three mouse strains with a non‐pathogenic mutant of Junin virus named C167 was compared with respect to the parental XJC13 strain. After intracerebral (ic) or intraperitoneal inoculation, XJC13 was highly virulent for 2 day‐old C~3~H/HeJ, OF1, and BALB/cJ mouse
