This infection often causes only mild symptoms, but prolonged swelling of the brain can cause permanent brain damage or death.Japanese encephalitis virus is carried and spread by mosquitoes.

The Japanese encephalitis SA14-14-2 vaccine is used to help prevent this disease in adults and adolescents who are at least 17 years old.This vaccine works by exposing you to a small dose of the virus, which causes the body to develop immunity to the disease.
