Phylodynamics of Crimean Congo hemorrhagic fever virus in South Russia

Infection, Genetics and Evolution, 2018
Phylodynamics of Crimean Congo Hemorrhagic fever virus (CCHFV) genotype V in South Russia was analyzed using 244 partial (452-571 nt) sequences in all three genomic segments and 38 complete genomic sequences. Despite increased number of sequences, the Russian lineage of the European genotype V (commonly termed GtVa) was distinct from GtV isolates from ...

CCHFV Seroprevalence among Hunter-Gatherers, Northeastern Democratic Republic of the Congo

Emerging Infectious Diseases
We evaluated human Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever virus (CCHFV) seroprevalence in hunter-gatherer populations of northeastern Democratic Republic of the Congo. We tested blood from 300 participants for CCHFV antibodies; 4% were CCHFV-positive.

Vectors of Crimean Congo Hemorrhagic Fever Virus in Iran.

Journal of arthropod-borne diseases, 2015
Ticks are important vectors and reservoirs of Crimean Congo Hemorrhagic Fever (CCHF) virus. Human beings may be infected whenever the normal life cycle of the infected ticks on non-human vertebrate hosts is interrupted by the undesirable presence of humans in the cycle.
