Protection against tick-borne encephalitis, a viral infection transmitted through infected tick bites in forested and rural areas.
Tick-borne encephalitis is a viral infection affecting the brain and nervous system, transmitted through bites from infected ticks found in forested and rural environments across parts of Europe and Asia. It can range from mild illness to more serious neurological disease in some cases.
TBE spreads through bites from infected ticks, commonly found in forests, grasslands, parks, and rural outdoor areas across Europe and parts of Asia.
Symptoms may begin with flu-like illness such as fever and fatigue, and can progress to serious brain or spinal cord infection in some cases.
Risk is higher in central, northern and eastern Europe, Siberia, and parts of Asia, especially during warmer months when ticks are most active.
Avoid tick bites by wearing protective clothing, using repellents, checking skin regularly, and removing ticks quickly after exposure in outdoor environments.
