Tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) is a viral infection spread by tick bites, common in parts of Europe and Asia. It can cause fever, headaches, and in serious cases, inflammation of the brain. Getting the tick-borne encephalitis vaccine is the most effective way to protect yourself before travelling to areas where the virus is found.
At Anna Pharmacy Carshalton, our trained pharmacists provide safe and reliable tick-borne encephalitis vaccination. We make it simple to get protected before your trip.
TBE can lead to serious illness affecting the brain and nervous system. Once infected, there is no specific treatment, which makes prevention through vaccination essential.
