Abstract

Analyzed has been epidemiological situation and measures, performed for prophylaxis of tick-borne viral encephalitis in the territory of Russia in 2015. It is shown that the number of humans bitten by ticks increased in the majority of the constituent entities of the country. But specific and nonspecific preventive operations in 2015 were realized to a lesser extent as compared to 2014. Along with the natural factors, it might be the reason for increase in human tick-borne viral encephalitis morbidity rates. In total, 2116 patients with tick-borne viral encephalitis and 24 lethal cases were registered in the country. On the basis of the data regarding tick-borne viral encephalitis (TBVE) incidence rate among the population across the Federal Districts of Russia over a period of 2009-2015, forecasted have been intensive indicators of the clinical forms’ manifestations for 2016. TBVE morbidity rate in RF will amount to (1.90 ± 0.21)о/оооо. With 95 % probability it will be retained within a range of 1.4-2.4о/оооо.
