Influenza in New Jersey in 1976: isolations of influenza A/New Jersey/76 virus at Fort Dix

M Goldfield et al. J Infect Dis. 1977 Dec.

Abstract

An outbreak of febrile respiratory disease at Fort Dix, New Jersey, beginning in January 1976, yielded five isolates of influenza A/New Jersey/76 virus and 42 isolates of strains resembling influenza A/Victoria/75 virus. Despite extraordinary efforts and the study of 305 verified cases of infection with type A influenza virus throughout the region, no additional instances of infections with influenza A/New Jersey virus were detected in humans.
