...prove the point, Dr. Richard J. Hirschman and his colleagues at NIH went back to an old and seemingly cold trail.

The researchers took weekly blood samples but did not find the culprit; so they deep-froze the samples and stored them. In 1968 the 15-year-old samples were thawed out and tested for the Australia antigen. The viruslike particle was found in the blood of 46 (or 74%) of the patients...
