Journal: Tick-borne encephalitis - The Book
Year: 2020

The available data indicate that infection with tick-borne encephalitis virus (TBEV) is the most common arbovirus infection in Ukraine. Natural TBE foci are mainly located in the Polissya territories (Volyn, Rivne, Zhytomyr, Kyiv, and the Chernigiv region), as well as the Pre-Carpathian and Trans–Carpathian regions; a highly intensive distribution of TBEV was also observed in the entire mountain forest zone of Crimea and in Volinskij.
