{{familytree/start |summary=PE diagnosis Algorithm.}}
Eastern equine encephalitis virus is usually transmitted via [[mosquito]]s to the human host. Eastern equine encephalitis virus contains [[positive-sense ssRNA virus|positive-sense]] viral [[RNA]]; this RNA has its genome directly utilized as if it were mRNA, producing a single protein which is modified by host and viral proteins to form the various proteins needed for [[replication]]. One of these includes [[RNA replicase]], which copies the viral RNA to form a double-stranded replicative form, in turn this directs the formation of new virions. Eastern equine encephalitis is made up of an [[enveloped virus|enveloped virion]] with a spherical [[capsid]]. The capsid has a T=4 [[icosahedral]] symmetry made of 240 [[monomer]]s and measuring approximately 65-70nm in diameter. The envelope contains 80 spikes; each spike is a [[trimer]] of E1/E2 proteins.<ref name=ViralZoneAlpha> Alphavirus.

The genome of eastern equine encephalitis is monopartite, linear, [[positive-sense ssRNA virus|ssRNA(+)]], and approximately 11-12 kb. The genome has a [[methylated]] [[nucleotide]] cap and [[Polyadenylation|polyadenylated]] tail.<ref name=ViralZoneAlpha> Alphavirus. SIB Swiss Institute of Bioinformatics. http://viralzone.expasy.org/viralzone/all_by_species/625.html Accessed on March 15, 2016 </ref> Eastern equine encephalitis is contracted by the [[bite]] of an infected [[mosquito]], primarily ''Culiseta melanura''. The virus is maintained in a cycle between ''Culiseta melanura'' mosquitos and avian hosts in [[freshwater]] hardwood swamps. ''Culiseta melanura'' is not an important vector of eastern equine virus to humans because it feeds almost exclusively on birds. Transmission to humans requires mosquito species capable of creating a "bridge" between infected birds and uninfected mammals, such as some ''[[Aedes]]'', ''Coquillettidia'', and ''Culex'' species. The [[incubation period]] is 4-10 days.<ref name=CDCEEE> Eastern Equine Encephalitis. CDC. http://www.cdc.gov/EasternEquineEncephalitis/index.html Accessed on March 15, 2016 </ref> Humans and horses are dead-end hosts for the virus, meaning there is an insufficient amount of eastern equine encephalitis virus in the blood stream to infect a mosquito. Many cases in horses are fatal. There is no known transmission between horses and humans.<ref name=EEEVILPubHealth> Eastern Equine Encephalitis Virus (EEEV). Illinois Department of Public Health (2010) http://www.idph.state.il.us/public/hb/hb_eee.htm Accessed on March 15, 2016. </ref> Recent studies have demonstrated other equine, such as mules and donkeys, and other animals, such as pigs, reptiles, amphibians, and rodents, can be infected.
