Who should get the TBE vaccine?

TBE (Tick-Borne Encephalitis) is also known as Central European encephalitis.

The TBE vaccine provides effective protection by stimulating your immune system to recognize and fight the TBE virus if you are exposed to it through a tick bite. By getting vaccinated, you reduce your risk of developing serious symptoms, which can include encephalitis and meningitis, both of which can have long-term consequences for your health.

Vaccination is especially recommended for those who live in or plan to travel to areas where TBE is prevalent and if you spend time outdoors in forested areas where ticks are active. It is an important protection for nature lovers, hikers and those who work outdoors in these regions.
