Tick‐Tac‐Foe: When Ticks, Trade, and Zoonotic Pathogens Align in African Wet Meat Markets
ABSTRACT Zoonotic diseases account for over ∼60% of infectious diseases and present a significantly growing fatality threat in Africa. Live and wet markets (LWMs) in Africa function as key economic venues that support human livelihoods through social interaction and trade in food stuff, including meat and other animal‐based products.

Bayesian Phylogeography of Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever Virus in Europe
Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) is a zoonosis mainly transmitted by ticks that causes severe hemorrhagic fever and has a mortality rate of 5-60%. The first outbreak of CCHF occurred in the Crimean peninsula in 1944-45 and it has recently emerged in the Balkans and eastern Mediterranean.

Risk Factors for Tick‐Borne Diseases in Germany: A Scoping Review
ABSTRACT Tick‐borne diseases (TBDs) have proliferated in Germany. The two most prevalent TBDs, Lyme‐borreliosis and tick‐borne encephalitis, can present with nonspecific symptoms and lead to serious neurological complications. To date, a review synthesising the risk factors of acquiring a TBD in Germany is missing.

Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever Virus Genome in Tick from Migratory Bird, Italy
We detected Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever virus in a Hyalomma rufipes nymph collected from a whinchat (Saxicola rubetra) on the island of Ventotene in April 2017. Partial genome sequences suggest the virus originated in Africa.

The Human Threat From West Nile Virus and Usutu Virus in a Changing Climate
ABSTRACT In recent years, the closely related arboviruses West Nile virus (WNV) and Usutu virus (USUV) have spread farther north in Europe. The viruses often co‐circulate and are maintained in a natural cycle between ornithophilic mosquitoes and birds.

Evidence for recombination in Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever virus
Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) virus has attracted considerable attention recently and a number of phylogenetic studies have been published, based mostly on partial sequences of S and M RNA segments. In this study, available full-length S, M and L segment sequences of CCHF virus were checked for recombination.
