Tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) is a neurotropic flaviviral disease. TBE was previously thought to be absent from the United Kingdom. We report the second probable case of United Kingdom-acquired TBE and demonstrate deer TBE-serocomplex seropositivity in the surrounding area, providing further evidence of the presence of TBE in England.
蜱传脑炎(TBE)是一种嗜神经性黄病毒病。此前,人们认为英国没有 TBE。我们报告了第二例可能在英国感染的 TBE 病例,并在周边地区检测到鹿 TBE 复合血清阳性,这进一步证明 TBE 存在于英格兰。
