Abstract
A POX-LIKE infection was observed in a female cynomologous monkey (B-39) approximately 45 days following exposure to whole-body irradiation of 350 r. Monkey B-39 had been maintained in the same area for approximately ten months and was one of the eight survivors of a group of monkeys used in a series of irradiation studies. All were apparently free from any noticeable infection until the appearance of the pox lesions. Similar pox lesions were seen in one other irradiated monkey (B-44) in an adjacent cage a few days later.
