Kemerovo tickborne viral fever is an aparalytic febrile illness accompanied by meningism following tick-bite.[1] The causative agent is a zoonotic Orbivirus first described in 1963 in western Siberia by Mikhail Chumakov and coworkers.[2] The virus has some 23 serotypes, and can occur in coinfections with other Orbiviruses and tick-transmitted encephalitis viruses, complicating the course of illness.[3] Rodents and birds are the primary vertebrate hosts of the virus;[4]Ixodes persulcatus ticks are a vector of the virus.[5] Kemerovo and related viruses may be translocated distances in the environment by migratory birds.[6]
