From the fifth day post‐infection, nasal and pharyngeal samples from all monkeys were detected as positive; the longest lasted to day 16.
Virus isolation is positive if any pharyngeal and nasal swab samples collected on days 2, 5, and 7 yield positive results.
Macaca mulatta were sacrificed before the tenth day.
Inoculated intravenously and via the nasal cavity with lung tissue lysate from a SARS patient.
