Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever Virus, Greece

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2014
Seroprevalence of Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever virus (CCHFV) is high in some regions of Greece, but only 1 case of disease has been reported. We used 4 methods to test 118 serum samples that were positive for CCHFV IgG by commercial ELISA and ...

Molecular Insights into Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever Virus [PDF]

Viruses, 2016
Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever virus (CCHFV) is a tick-borne pathogen that causes high morbidity and mortality. Efficacy of vaccines and antivirals to treat human CCHFV infections remains limited and controversial. Research into pathology and underlying molecular mechanisms of CCHFV and other nairoviruses is limited. Significant progress has been made

Phylogeography of Crimean Congo Hemorrhagic Fever Virus.

PLoS ONE, 2016
Crimean Congo hemorrhagic fever virus (CCHFV) is one of the most severe viral zoonozes. It is prevalent throughout Africa, Asia and southern Europe. Limited availability of sequence data has hindered phylogeographic studies. The complete genomic sequence

Immunocompetent mouse model for Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever virus

eLife, 2021
Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) is a severe tick-borne febrile illness with wide geographic distribution. CCHF is caused by infection with the Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever virus (CCHFV) and case fatality rates can be as high as 30%.

Subclinical Infections with Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever Virus, Turkey

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2012
To investigate Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever virus in Turkey, we conducted a seroepidemiologic survey during January–April 2009. Seroprevalence of infection was 10% in a sample from an outbreak region and increased with patient age, indicating that the

Persistence of Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever Virus RNA [PDF]

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2020
Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever virus (CCHFV) causes severe disease with fatalities. Awareness of potential sources of infection is important to reduce risk to healthcare workers and contacts. We detected CCHFV RNA in formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissues from a spontaneous abortion that were submitted for histology 9 weeks after a suspected CCHFV ...
