3. Introduction

Tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV) is a virus of the family Flaviviridae and has three subtypes: European or Western tick-borne encephalitis virus, Siberian tick-borne encephalitis virus and Far eastern tick-borne encephalitis virus (formerly known as Russian Spring Summer encephalitis virus). TBEV causes tick-borne encephalitis, a human viral disease of the central nervous system, typically presenting in meningitis, encephalitis or meningoencephilitis. Ixodid Ticks are the vector and reservoir for TBEV, with the main hosts being rodents, with humans being accidental hosts. The disease is endemic to Europe, Russia and Asia.
