Introduction
Lymphocytic choriomeningitis virus (LCMV) is carried by wild mice. Laboratory rodents and pet rodents, such as hamsters and guinea pigs, can become infected with LCMV from contact with wild mice. This can happen in a breeding facility, in a laboratory facility, in a pet store, or in the home (e.g., if wild mice are present).
