The current research was carried out in order to provide a tangible contribution not only to the identification of diseases, but also to the prevention of their spread over the Indian continent. This will also help medical professionals tackle this metazoonotic disease. In many Asian countries, the Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV), a member of the flaviviridae family (genus Flavivirus), is the primary cause of meta-zoonotic viral encephalitis. The disease was first documented in Nagpur, Maharashtra, in 1952, when approximately 16 people died of an unknown viral encephalitis that was eventually identified as JEV; it was only a few miles away from Chandrapur were the current disasters occurred.
Nearly 20 males and 22 females tested positive among the overall suspicious population. In terms of monthly distribution, the month of July had the highest number of suspected cases. The majority of JEV-affected children were in the age category of 1 to 5 years old, and as they grew older, the frequency of seropositive cases decreased. Human blood or CSF might be used as a reservoir from which opportunistic infections could be isolated. Vaccinations could potentially have an essential role in JE epidemic areas, which could be double-checked. As a result, the inclusion of the JE vaccine in a routine vaccination programme in JEV-infected areas could be advantageous.Author(S) Details
