Description:
Tick-borne encephalitis is a topical problem in Lithuania and all over the world. This
virus is the source of a tick-borne tick. Every year in Lithuania 300 - 400 tick-borne encephalitis
diseases are recorded. Literature sources say that more people with tick-borne encephalitis are
infected with people who spend a lot of time in the forest, in the high grass and the most frequent
farmers or hunters of their profession. Also the literature suggests that the best and most
effective prevention against tick-borne encephalitis is vaccination or other preventive measures.
Work objective. to evaluate a person whose activities are performed under field
conditions, awareness of the prevention of tick-borne encephalitis.
Tasks:
1. To describe the concept of tick-borne encephalitis, risk factors and prophylaxis.
2. To determine what protective measures against tick-borne encephalitis virus are used by
persons under field conditions.
3. Identify the activities of a person undergoing field awareness about the prevention of tickborne
encephalitis.
Research methods used at work. analysis of scientific literature, anonymous
questionnaire survey, results of study, statistical analysis.
Results and conclusions. After analyzing the literature, we can say that tick-borne
encephalitis is the most common form of infestation of tick-borne tick. The disease disrupts the
central nervous system. The biggest risk is to those who spend a lot of time in the forest, because
ticks are most active there. The most appropriate way to protect against tick-borne encephalitis
virus is vaccination or other preventive measures. 50 people were interviewed during this study.
Their age is 18 to 66 and older. All subjects have professional backgrounds or leisure activities on
outdoor conditions.
After analyzing the answers of the respondents in the questionnaire, found out that the
big part (82 %) was not vaccinated against tick-borne encephalitis. Almost half of the respondents
(44 %) said they heard about tick - borne encephalitis vaccination, but they are not interested. The
respondents (66- 74 %) in the study only recognize a few symptoms of tick - borne encephalitis
that develop in the first stage. Interviewer use protective measures: showering under shower (90
%), body consciousness (92 %), also wearing long pants (60 %). So we can say that explorers tend to use simple prophylaxis instead of vaccination and they are not aware of the symptoms of tickborne
encephalitis consequences and the most effective preventive method
