What we know and still do not know about tick-borne encephalitis?
Original language description
Tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) is a febrile illness caused by tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV), frequently manifesting as inflammation of the central nervous system. TBEV is a typical arbovirus, i.e., belongs to a group of viruses transmitted by blood-sucking arthropods. Taxonomically, TBEV is a member of the genus Flavivirus, family Flaviviridae. The disease is endemic in North Eurasia, from western Europe to East Asia. The virus occurs in natural foci of the disease all over Czechia, where it is transmitted predominantly by the castor bean tick (Ixodes ricinus). This infection has a potential to cause significant long-term disability affecting the quality of the patient’s life. Vaccine is available, however, vaccination coverage in Czechia is still low (around 30% of the total population). Lately, attention has been focused on new possibilities for early diagnosis and specific treatment, which so far has only been symptomatic or empirical.
