Abstract:
Japanese encephalitis (JE) virus is a mosquito-borne flavivirus that can cause encephalitis and death in horses and humans. It is an emerging disease of international concern because it has been spreading into previously nonendemic areas. Major epidemics may occur where the virus moves into new areas, but many infections are subclinical. This article presents information on the virus, its epidemiology, and what little information has been published on the disease in horses. The methods available for the diagnosis and control of JE are described and issues raised, particularly for those countries faced with the threat of imminent incursions as the virus extends its range.
