This review focuses on the epidemiology and ecology of the tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) virus including all the factors influencing the ecology of the TBE virus, environmental and climatic conditions, the vectors and reservoir hosts and their interactions. Consequently, the structure and the conditions of natural foci of TBE are described, as well. Special emphasis is given on data regarding the virus prevalence in ticks in the field. In the second part of this review all the epidemiological and surveillance data of TBE in the 27 European countries and in the Far East with risk areas of TBE and in China and Japan are summarised. Therefore the review is a basis for travellers and inhabitants to get background information for their personal risk assessment.
本综述聚焦于蜱传脑炎（TBE）病毒的流行病学和生态学，包括影响TBE病毒生态学的所有因素、环境和气候条件、传播媒介和储存宿主及其相互作用。因此，还描述了TBE自然疫源地的结构和条件。特别强调了关于野外蜱中病毒流行率的数据。在本综述的第二部分，总结了27个欧洲国家以及远东地区有TBE风险区域的TBE流行病学和监测数据，以及中国和日本的相关数据。因此，本综述为旅行者和居民进行个人风险评估提供背景信息奠定了基础。
