*04*08* b-12 A patient with clinical signs of encephalitis was delivered to the infectious disease
hospital. Anamnesis registers a tick bite. Hemagglutination-inhibition reaction helped to reveal
antibodies to causative agent of tick-borne encephalitis in the dilution 1:20 which is not diagnostic.

infection besides of tick bite?
