## Abstract The frequency of indeterminate Western blot (WB) seroreactivities against HTLV‐I “__gag__ encoded proteins” only, and the use of low specific diagnostic WB criteria led to the overestimation of HTLV‐I seroprevalence in initial studies in intertropical Africa and Papua New Guinea. In ord
