Abstract

The article describes two cases of transmission of lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV) and an LCMV-like arenavirus via organ transplantation from a common donor in Massachusetts in 2008 that were reported to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control & Prevention (CDC). The kidney donor was a man aged 49 years with a history of alcohol abuse.
