Specific IgG antibodies against Tick-Borne Encephalitis Virus (anti-TBEV) at levels exceeding 60 VIEU/ml were detected in almost 14% of forestry workers and in 1.5% of other healthy persons, residents of the endemic area. Mean levels of anti-TBEV were similar in comparable subgroups of men and women, or subgroups of urban and rural residents, however, increased levels of these antibodies were found in elderly persons.
