Actual and predicted number of TBE cases in 4 game management areas, Finland, 2007–2017. A) Varsinais-Suomi; B) Kaakkois-Suomi; C) Uusimaa; and D) Lappi. Number of tick-borne encephalitis cases is predicted by a mixed effects multivariable negative binomial model including number of moose, roe deer, white-tailed deer, mountain hare, and red fox killed by hunters adjusted for a 12-month periodicity, minimum temperature, and month, with a random effect on game management areas. TBE, tick-borne encephalitis
