Powassan Virus Encephalitis Following Brief Attachment of Connecticut Deer Ticks [PDF]

Clinical Infectious Diseases, 2020
AbstractBackgroundPowassan virus (POWV) is a tick-transmitted pathogen that may cause severe encephalitis; experimentally, it can be transmitted within just 15 minutes following a tick bite. The deer tick virus subtype of POWV (DTV) is transmitted by the deer tick and is the likely cause of the increase in the number of POWV cases reported in the ...
