Primary cultures of human synovial cells shed infectious virus for 14 to 35 days following
infection with isolates of Ross River virus which had been passaged in the C6/36 line of
Aedes albopictus mosquito cells. No frank cytopathic effect was seen in infected synovial
cells and they continued to replicate for the duration of the experiments.
