Also, shown is 2006 plus presumed cases, where nine additional chimpanzees, although not observed with clinical signs, have not been seen since the time of the outbreak as follows: one on May 25 (day -8), six on June 5 (day 3), one on June 6 (day 4) and one on June 28 (day 26); they are presumed dead possibly in association with the respiratory illness [Hanamura et al., 2008] . Clinical signs of respiratory illness were observed in all age groups of the M-Group chimpanzees consistent with those reported in humans infected with hMPV.	./cache/cord-279577-iwqr2d0r.txt	./txt/cord-279577-iwqr2d0r.txt
