AB  - The human T-lymphotropic viruses, type I (HTLV-I) and type II (HTLV-II), are 
      closely related but distinct retroviruses that can infect humans. They are 
      different from the human immunodeficiency viruses that cause acquired 
      immunodeficiency syndrome. Screening of the U.S. blood supply for HTLV-I/II, 
      which began in 1988, identifies HTLV-I- and HTLV-II-infected persons who should 
      be counseled regarding their infections. This document summarizes current 
      information about HTLV, types I and II, and presents recommendations developed by 
      CDC and a U.S. Public Health Service working group for counseling HTLV-I- and 
      HTLV-II-infected persons.
