Summary

Cynomolgus macaques imported from the same Philippine breeding facility implicated in the 1989 Reston outbreak were found infected with Reston ebolavirus at a Siena quarantine facility. No human infections were documented.

Why this matters

Second international export of Reston ebolavirus from the Philippines; reinforced the Philippine origin of the species.
