从3只若虫和1只成年雌虫I的混合物中回收到Powassan病毒。1967年从马萨诸塞州捕获的条纹臭鼬（Mephitis mephitis）和9只若虫I. 1978年在康涅狄格州捕获的长尾鼬鼠（Mustela frenata）。在这两种哺乳动物的血液中检测到病毒。在康涅狄格州采样的臭鼬中，16.0%的臭鼬显示出对Powassan病毒的血凝抑制（HI）抗体;在马萨诸塞州检测的臭鼬中，83.3%检测到中和抗体。在康涅狄格州的6只长尾黄鼬和缅因州的6只短尾黄鼬中各有1只出现HI抗体。
Powassan virus was recovered from a pool of 3 nymphal and 1 adult female I. cookei removed from a striped skunk (Mephitis mephitis) trapped in Massachusetts during 1967 and from a pool of 9 nymphal I. cookei from a long-tailed weasel (Mustela frenata) captured in Connecticut during 1978. Virus was detected in the blood of both mammals. Hemagglutination-inhibiting (HI) antibody to Powassan virus was demonstrated in 16.0% of the skunks sampled in Connecticut; neutralizing antibody was detected in 83.3% of the skunks tested from Massachusetts. HI antibody was found in 1 of 6 long-tailed weasels from Connecticut and 1 of 6 shor-tailed weasels (Mustela erminea) from Maine.
