Tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) is an ailment that is transmitted mostly by tick bites. It can induce flu-like symptoms or more severe conditions like meningitis or brain inflammation.
Ticks that transmit the disease are found in:
- The majority of Europe, including portions of England
- China
- and Japan
Ticks inhabit woodlands and grasslands. When you engage in activities such as hiking and camping, your risk of being bitten increases.
Not all ticks can transmit TBE. Even if bitten, the risk of developing a serious illness is low.
Some individuals will get a high temperature (fever) and flu-like symptoms (such as feeling hot and shivering, headaches, aching muscles, and nausea) that last approximately one week.
You should be informed of ways to avoid tick bites if you want to spend extended periods outside in forests or rural areas of nations where TBE illness is common. See the useful links section below for ways to avoid tick bites.
The TBE vaccine is the most effective strategy to avoid illness, especially if you plan to participate in outdoor activities such as walking, hiking, camping, cycling, fishing, orienteering, or jogging in rural or forested areas.
The vaccination against TBE available in the United Kingdom is called TicoVac. For children, there is a vaccine called TicoVac junior.
The immunisation regimen consists of three vaccine shots.
We provide a comprehensive range of travel vaccinations and antimalarials. It is recommended that you book your appointment 6-8 weeks prior to your trip to ensure that you can get the recommended vaccinations on time.
