Abstract
Immunization with attenuated VEE virus vaccine resulted in persistence of neutralizing antibody for 12 years. Immunization with inactivated WEE vaccine converted 83% of the subjects, killed EEE vaccine converted 27% and killed Chikungunya vaccine induced no significant titers. Antibody formed as a result of immunization with inactivated vaccines was of short duration, i.e. less than 1 year. Attenuated VEE was responsible for some heterologous antibody rises to the other three alphaviruses. Among the inactivated vaccines WEE and Chikungunya vaccines produced one heterologous rise each to EEE virus.
