Fig. 1From: Eastern equine encephalitis virus in mice I: clinical course and outcome are dependent on route of exposureChange in mean body weight (a) and percent of BALB/c mice that either displayed clinical signs of disease or were moribund (b) after intranasal, aerosol, or subcutaneous infection with EEEV strain FL93-939. Mice were monitored daily after infection and percent change in weight was determined from the day of infection (day 0). Note that the aerosol study was terminated at 4 dpi because 90 % of the animals in the 5 dpi group had moderate to severe signs of clinical disease. (*) Three animals in the subcutaneous study from the 8 dpi group were euthanized prematurely due to the onset of severe clinical diseaseBack to article page
