Abstract
Current knowledge of the virus-vector-host relationships of eastern, western, and St. Louis encephalitis viruses is evaluated and discussed. Probable ecological factors influencing human, equine, and wild-bird infection are considered. Practical methods of prevention and control remain to be demonstrated, but continued research will undoubtedly lead to the development of effective control procedures.Keywords
