The clinical signs caused are rarely pathognomonic; therefore, a clinical diagnosis is usually presumptive according to the geographical region. However, recent decades have seen expansion of the geographical range and emergence in new regions of numerous viral diseases. In this context, this review presents an overview of the prevalence and distribution of the main viral causes of equine encephalitis and discusses their impact and potential approaches to limit their spread.application/pdfenopen accessEquine encephalomyelitis.Animals as carriers of disease - Mathematical models.Animales vectores - Modelos matemáticos.Encefalomielitis equina.Artículohttps://doi.org/10.2147/VMRR.S168227https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-nc-nd/4.0/deed.es
