International Symposium on Tick-Borne Arboviruses (Excluding Group B)

Abstract

Arboviruses whose vectors are, or are suspected of being, ticks can be divided into two sets; those that belong in group B and those that do not. In this Symposium only the latter are considered. The tick-borne viruses not of group B (non-GBTB) viruses constitute an increasingly larger collection which consists at present of about 40 distinct serotypes. None is, thus far, antigenically related to arboviruses outside the collection. As with other arboviruses, the evidence that they are tick-borne is fairly conclusive in few instances; in most cases it is assumed on the basis that, with few exceptions, ticks are the only arthropods from which they have been isolated in nature.
