Human tick-borne encephalitis and characterization of virus from biting tick

• We report a case of human tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) in which the TBE virus was isolated from the biting tick. Viral growth and sequence were characterized and compared with those of a reference strain. Virus isolation from ticks from patients with TBE may offer a new approach for studies of epidemiology and pathogenicity. © 2016, Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC).
