Comment: 1. Format
乙型腦炎|乙型脑炎[yi3 xing2 nao3 yan2]

2. Meningitis B appears to be wrong since it is " caused by a bacterial infection"
https://www.bexsero.com/meningitis-b-facts/index.html
whereas Japanese encephalitis is caused by a virus:
"caused by the Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV)." [Wp]

3. The other two English names appear to refer to the same thing though:
"Epidemic encephalitis B, formerly known as japanese encephalitis (JE) is a disease caused by the mosquito-borne Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV)."
