Encephalitis is an inflammation of the brain caused by an infection or through the immune system attacking the brain in error.

Death from encephalitis

Encephalitis is a serious neurological condition and unfortunately, despite improvements in specific and more supportive treatments such as excellent intensive care management, encephalitis still has a high mortality (death) rate.
