摘要：
Investigation of a human T-lymphotropic virus type IT (HTLV-II) infection iii a female Australian blood donor identified a human bite as the likely mode of transmission, confirmed by nucleotide sequencing of the proviral tax/rex from both donor and contact. We believe this to be the first report of the transmission of an HTLV by a human bite.
