- In 2025, Baden-Württemberg recorded 260 FSME cases, including 40 in the Stuttgart area, with adults often experiencing serious neurological aftereffects.
- FSME vaccination provides effective protection, but only about 17 percent of residents are fully vaccinated, requiring three doses for full immunity.
- Borrelia, a bacterial infection transmitted by ticks, can be treated with antibiotics if detected early through symptoms like expanding skin rash.
- Protective measures include vaccination, wearing long clothing outdoors, thorough tick checks, and careful removal using appropriate tools.
FSME is a viral infection for which there is no treatment, but there is a very effective protection: vaccination.— Manfred Lucha, Baden-Württemberg's Minister of Health (Greens), in Stuttgart, said on Thursday.
