Pathogenicity and virulence of Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever virus: From enzootic maintenance to severe human disease

Virulence
Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) is a severe tick-borne disease caused by Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever virus (CCHFV), an enveloped, negative-sense, tri-segmented RNA virus in the genus Orthonairovirus.

Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever Virus Genome in Tick from Migratory Bird, Italy

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2019
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.

Imported viral haemorrhagic fever with a potential for person-to-person transmission: review and recommendations for initial management of a suspected case in Belgium.

, 2002
Viral haemorrhagic fevers are caused by a wide range of viruses. There are 4 types of viruses well known to spread from person to person and able to cause nosocomial outbreaks with a high case fatality rate: an arenavirus (Lassa fever and more ...

Prevalence of Antibodies to Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever Virus in Ruminants, Nigeria, 2015

Emerging Infectious Diseases, 2020
Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever virus (CCHFV) is a highly transmissible human pathogen. Infection is often misdiagnosed, in part because of poor availability of data in disease-endemic areas. We sampled 150 apparently healthy ruminants throughout Nigeria

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
