“…In addition, MeV RNA was detected in a single sample, genetic analysis of which showed that the isolated sequence belonged to the B3 genotype, the cause of an outbreak in the Philippines in 2014. PCR testing also identified Ebola Reston virus (RESTV) RNA in one monkey in addition to MeV, which is the first recorded case of this type of mixed infection in NHPs 13 …”

“…PCR testing also identified Ebola Reston virus (RESTV) RNA in one monkey in addition to MeV, which is the first recorded case of this type of mixed infection in NHPs. 13 In 1954 and 1962, the Sukhumi nursery recorded two outbreaks of measles occurring among rhesus macaques, Assam macaques, and hamadryas baboons. The first outbreak killed 31 animals.…”

“…Spontaneous measles outbreaks have been described in a number of zoos and primate centers worldwide. [6][7][8][9][10][11][12][13] As in humans, measles in NHPs is highly contagious. Studies have shown that after they enter captivity, the virus spreads among NHPs within a period of 3 weeks.…”

It is six decades since the measles vaccine was first introduced, and yet we continue to see frequent outbreaks of this disease occurring all over the world. Many non‐human primate (NHP) species, including apes, are susceptible to the measles virus. Spontaneous measles outbreaks have been described in a number of zoos and primate centers worldwide. Research into the spontaneous and experimental infection of laboratory primates with measles represents an invaluable source of information regarding the biology and pathogenesis of this virus and continues to be an irreplaceable and unique tool for testing vaccines and treatments. The purpose of this literature review is to summarize and analyze published data on the circulation of the measles virus among free‐living synanthropic and captive primate populations, as well as the results of experiments that have modeled this infection in NHPs.
