Abstract
SOME authors1–3 have reported that saline preparations of vaccinia virus, when mixed with suitable suspensions of red cells from certain adult fowls, caused hæmagglutination, which could be inhibited by antiserum to vaccinia. Only 50 per cent of the fowls were found to have cells agglutinable with vaccinia virus and the phenomenon appeared to operate independently of breed, sex or age.
