Georgia LT 117 1960

The strain was isolated in 1952 from a raccoon (Procyon lotor) in the United States and described as a new subserovar of mini, named georgia (Galton et al., 1960).
In the list of 1967 (WHO, 1967) the strain is reported as a separate serovar within the Hebdomadis group. The strain was submitted to factor analysis by Kmety (1977), who confirmed its serovar status and suggested placing it in the proposed new Mini serogroup.
During the TSC Boston meeting of 1982 this proposal was accepted.
