| tick-borne encephalitis | 1. (Central European subtype) tick-borne meningoencephalitis caused by a flavivirus closely related to the virus causing the Far Eastern type; it is transmitted by Ixodes ricinus, also by infected raw milk, especially that of goats. Synonym: biundulant meningoencephalitis, Central European tick-borne fever, diphasic milk fever, Russian spring-summer encephalitis (Western subtype). 2. (Eastern subtype) tick-borne encephalitis, a severe form of encephalitis caused by a flavivirus, a virus belonging to the Flaviviridae family, and transmitted by ticks (Ixodes pertulcatus and I.

| encephalitis, epidemic | A viral encephalitis caused by encephalitis viruses, all arboviruses. The severity of the encephalitis depends upon which virus strain causes the infection. The viruses are maintained by inapparent zoonoses in birds and lower vertebrates, and are transmitted to humans via arthropod vectors. (12 Dec 1998) |
