Dengue virus isolation in Indonesia, 1975-1978.
Virus isolations from dengue hemorrhagic fever patients in Indonesia are reported from 1975 to 1978. All 4 dengue serotypes were endemic in Jakarta, but dengue 3 was the predominant virus isolated. This type was also the most frequently isolated virus from patients outside Jakarta and had the widest distribution in Indonesia. The sensitivity of the mosquito inoculation technique for isolation of dengue viruses is discussed.
