TL;DR

Findings suggest possible co-circulation of TBEV and TRBV in I. ricinus populations in selected sites in Slovakia and raise the possibility of co-infections, highlighting the importance of continued surveillance of tick-borne viruses.

TICK-BORNE ENCEPHALITIS VIRUS PREVALENCE IN EUROPEAN TICK POPULATIONS: A GEOGRAPHIC PERSPECTIVE

This systematic review investigates TBEV prevalence and expansion across 26 countries to evaluate shifting transmission risks and the emergence of new microfoci, finding that TBEV distribution is highly dynamic, driven by climate-mediated range shifts and the silent establishment of new microfoci.

Detection and Genetic Analysis of Jingmen Tick Virus in Greece

Jingmen tick virus (JMTV) is an emerging, segmented RNA virus in the Flaviviridae family. Since its first identification in 2010 in China, JMTV has been detected in several parts of the world, primarily in ticks, but also in other arthropods, mammals, and even humans. The study included 400 adult ticks (333 Rhipicephal...
