Tick-borne encephalitis is a viral infection spread by tick bites. Your route and outdoor activities help determine whether vaccination is worth discussing.
Map your activities
Give the clinician the regions you will visit, the time of year and how often you expect to hike, camp or spend time in woodland and grassy areas. Include excursions beyond your main destination.
Check the dates before you leave
Take previous vaccination records and your departure date. If a course is suitable, ask which appointments need to happen before travel and how to schedule any remaining doses.

Prepare for tick exposure
Plan protective clothing and regular tick checks. Ask for advice on tick removal and when to seek help after a bite. Tick-bite precautions matter because ticks can spread other infections too.
