Overview
St. Louis encephalitis may be classified according to location of the disease into 2 subtypes: systemic or encephalitic.[1][2] St. Louis encephalitis may also be classified according to neuroinvasiveness of the disease into two subtypes: neuroinvasive and non-neuroinvasive. St. Louis encephalitis virus is a Group IV positive-sense ssRNA virus within the Flaviviridae family of viruses, and the genus Flavivirus. St. Louis encephalitis is also known as an arbovirus, or an arthopod-borne virus.[3]
