A literature review on flavivirus cross-reactivity was performed in PubMed/MEDLINE using the combination of keywords "Cross-reactive antibodies" and "Tick-borne encephalitis virus". To TBEV antibodies, IgM/IgG antibodies to WNV and IgG antibodies to USUV were also detected in the patient presented in this report in . . .
