Japanese encephalitis primarily affects people living in or traveling to rural areas of Asia and the Western Pacific where the disease is endemic. Those at higher risk include individuals who work outdoors, such as farmers or those involved in agricultural activities, as well as travelers who spend extended periods in affected regions. Children are particularly vulnerable due to their lower levels of immunity. Vaccination is recommended for people in high-risk areas or for those planning to spend considerable time in such regions.
