Tick-borne encephalitis virus, Kyrgyzstan

Tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV) is an emerging pathogen in Europe and Asia.

Zusammenfassung:	Tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV) is an emerging pathogen in Europe and Asia. We investigated TBEV in Kyrgyzstan by collecting small mammals and ticks from diverse localities and analyzing them for evidence of TBEV infection. We found TBEV circulating in Kyrgyzstan much farther south and at higher altitudes than previously reported.
