Seroprevalence and factors associated with CCHF virus infection in cattle and sheep in Mopti region (Mali). [PDF]

Arch Razi Inst
Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) is a zoonotic arboviral disease caused by a virus of Bunyaviridae family, genus Orthonairovirus and transmitted by tick bite. The virus causes subclinical infection in animals and severe viral hemorrhagic disease, with a fatality rate of 10-40% in humans.Between January and February 2020, eighteen (18) human cases
