Journal of Special Operations Medicine, 2016 Abstract: Japanese encephalitis (JE) is an acute infective disease in the central nervous system. Pigs and birds are the main reservoirs of JE viruses, albeit, there is no transmission from human to human with mosquito bites. Clinical manifestations of JE in human vary from mild symptoms like rhinitis until severe symptoms, and even death.
