Arboviral Encephalitis01:25

Arboviral Encephalitis

1
Arboviral encephalitis refers to brain inflammation caused by arthropod-borne viruses, particularly those transmitted through mosquito vectors. Among these, West Nile virus (WNV), a member of the Flaviviridae family, is a significant public health concern. WNV is an enveloped, positive-sense, single-stranded RNA virus. Human infection typically begins when an infected mosquito introduces the virus into the dermis during feeding. The primary transmission cycle involves birds as amplifying hosts...

Diphtheria

16
Diphtheria is an acute, toxin-mediated infectious disease that primarily affects the upper respiratory tract. It is caused by Corynebacterium diphtheriae, a Gram-positive, pleomorphic rod that lacks spore-forming capability and exhibits a characteristic club-shaped morphology under microscopic examination. While C. diphtheriae can asymptomatically colonize mucosal surfaces, clinical disease manifests only when the bacterial strain is lysogenized by a specific β-corynephage. This phage...

Area of Science:

  • Virology
  • Immunology
  • Epidemiology

Context:

  • Tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) is a serious viral zoonosis with potential for severe neurological sequelae and mortality.
  • No specific antiviral therapy is currently available for TBE.
  • Active immunization through vaccination is the primary strategy for TBE prevention and control.

Purpose:

  • To outline the importance and recommendations for TBE vaccination.
  • To describe the available vaccination schedules and vaccine types in Switzerland.
  • To summarize the safety and efficacy profile of TBE vaccines based on available evidence.

Summary:

  • TBE vaccination is recommended for adults and children over 6 in endemic regions, with two inactivated vaccines available in Switzerland.
  • The standard schedule involves three initial doses followed by a booster every 10 years.
  • While controlled efficacy studies are lacking, indirect evidence suggests good protection and safety, with common side effects being local reactions and rare instances of systemic or severe adverse events.

Impact:

  • Highlights the critical role of vaccination in managing TBE risk in endemic populations.
  • Provides practical guidance on TBE vaccination schedules and safety considerations for healthcare providers and the public.
  • Underscores the need for continued vigilance and potential further research into vaccine efficacy.
