1. Powassan virus (POWV) is an emergent tick-borne encephalitis virus of Lyme disease endemic sites in North America. Due to range expansion and local intensification of deer tick vector ( Ixodes scapularis ) populations in the northeastern and upper midwestern U.S., encephalitis cases are increasingly being reported.
