Tick‐Borne Viruses in Finland: Public Health Risks, Interventions and Research Insights [PDF]

Veterinary Medicine and Science
Ticks are obligate haematophagous arthropods that serve as vectors for diverse pathogens, including viruses, bacteria and protozoa. In Finland, the two primary tick species, Ixodes ricinus (castor bean tick) and Ixodes persulcatus (taiga tick), have been

Milk Modulates the Gastrointestinal Stability of Tick‐Borne Encephalitis Virus: Implications for Alimentary Transmission [PDF]

Journal of Medical Virology, Volume 98, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Tick‐borne encephalitis virus (TBEV) can be transmitted alimentarily through contaminated dairy products, yet the mechanisms by which the virus survives the digestive tract remain poorly understood. In this study, we investigated the stability of TBEV in milk under simulated gastrointestinal conditions.

Lethal Case of Bourbon Virus Leading to Shock and ECMO Utilization [PDF]

Case Reports in Infectious Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
We present a lethal case of Bourbon virus infection in a 63‐year‐old Caucasian, diabetic male who was previously in good health. The patient had spent time in the wooded areas of Bourbon County, Kansas, and removed three ticks from his body 5 days prior to presentation.

LRP8 is an entry receptor for tick-borne encephalitis viruses [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences
Orthoflaviviruses are a genus of arthropod-transmitted RNA viruses that infect humans and other vertebrate animals on a global scale, resulting in extensive morbidity and mortality. Among the orthoflaviviruses, tick-borne encephalitis viruses (TBEV) are an antigenic group that causes severe neurological disease in humans.

First Expert Elicitation of Knowledge on Possible Drivers of Observed Increasing Human Cases of Tick-Borne Encephalitis in Europe

Viruses, 2023
Tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) is a viral disease endemic in Eurasia. The virus is mainly transmitted to humans via ticks and occasionally via the consumption of unpasteurized milk products.

Tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV), is the disease still dangerous?

Journal of Education, Health and Sport, 2022
Tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV)  belongs to the family Flaviviridae. Flaviviruses are 50 nm viruses having a membrane envelope with an RNA genome. The vector of TBEV is the common tick (Ixodes ricinus) prevalent mainly in Europe.
