Key result
Cross-neutralization testing of Coxsackie viruses identified at least 5 distinct serological types, including a previously unreported type isolated from human paralytic infections.

Broadens Coxsackie virus diversity in paralysis; leaves open diagnostic and epidemiologic implications pending human studies.
A serological comparison of 2 virus strains recently isolated from human paralytic infections and other viruses of the Coxsackie family is presented. The results indicate that at least 5 serological types of Coxsackie virus have been encountered. To our knowledge human infection with the type isolated in this laboratory has not been previously reported.
