- Mild infections occur without apparent symptoms other than fever with headache.
- More severe infection is marked by quick onset, headache, high fever, neck stiffness, stupor, disorientation, coma, tremors, occasional convulsions (especially in infants) and spastic (but rarely flaccid) paralysis.
The incubation period for Japanese encephalitis is usually from 5 to 15 days.
