Arbovirus Antibodies in Indonesians at Malili, South Sulawesi (Celebes) and Balikpapan, E. Kelimantan (Borneo)

Abstract

Two hundred human sera from South Sulawesi and 22 from East Kalimantan were analysed for arbovirus antibodies by the hemagglutination- inhibition test. Antibodies against Japanese encephalitis and dengue were present in all but one of the E. Kalimantan sera, and in many of those S. Sulawesi. There was serological evidence of exposure to Chikungunya, and possibly Zika, virus in a few inhabitants of S. Sulawesi.
