title: [Problems of symptomatology and epidemiology of early-summer meningoencephalitis (tick borne encephalitis)].
abstract: Three forms related to different age groups are discussed. Special attention is devoted to laboratory analyses in support of clinical diagnosis. A representative sample of sera from the healthy population of Thuringia showed 6.97 per cent positive sera. The difference between the exposed agricultural and forestry workers and industrial workers is significant. Moreover, there is a relationship between the extent of wooded country and the presence of microfoci.
