ECDC is organising a physical workshop between 16 and 18 April 2024 with national experts to develop a public health guidance to support the assessment of the risk of locally-acquired Aedes-borne viral diseases in the EU/EEA.
The European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC) and the European Food Safety Authority (EFSA) kindly invite you to join a webinar on West Nile virus and Usutu virus infections among humans and animals, with a focus on the situation in the European Union.
Different tick/mosquito species can transmit different diseases. Most common mosquitoes, ticks and infectious diseases in Europe, where are they present in Europe. Why vector-borne diseases spread during the summer?
Ticks themselves do not cause disease but if a tick is infected with a virus or bacterium, then that pathogen can be transmitted through the tick’s bite and cause disease in humans.
