- Tick-borne encephalitis (TBE) is a viral infectious disease involving the central nervous system. The disease most often manifests as meningitis, encephalitis, or meningoencephalitis. Although TBE is most commonly recognized as a neurological disorder, mild fever can also occur. [TBE]
- Meningoencephalitis is always viral or other atypical pathogen..but it is NOT bacterial or fungal.
- encephalitis is a DX code with the proper term being meningoencephalitis. But it is not meningitis.

- Lyme meningitis (due to Borrelia burgdorferi or Borrelia mayonii)
