Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever Virus Diversity and Reassortment, Pakistan, 2017-2020
Emerg Infect Dis. 2024 Apr;30(4):654-664. doi: 10.3201/eid3004.231155.ABSTRACTSporadic cases and outbreaks of Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) have been documented across Pakistan since 1976; however, data regarding the diversity of CCHF virus (CCHFV) in Pakistan is sparse. We whole-genome sequenced 36 CCHFV samples collected from persons infected in Pakistan during 2017-2020. Most CCHF cases were from Rawalpindi (n = 10), followed by Peshawar (n = 7) and Islamabad (n = 4). Phylogenetic analysis revealed the Asia-1 genotype was dominant, but 4 reassorted strains were identified. Strains with reassorted medium gene se...

Animal Exposure Model for Mapping Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever Virus Emergence Risk
Emerg Infect Dis. 2024 Apr;30(4):672-680. doi: 10.3201/eid3004.221604.ABSTRACTTo estimate the determinants of spatial variation in Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever virus (CCHFV) transmission and to create a risk map as a preventive public health tool, we designed a survey of small domestic ruminants in Andalusia, Spain. To assess CCHFV exposure spatial distribution, we analyzed serum from 2,440 sheep and goats by using a double-antigen ELISA and modeled exposure probability with environmental predictors by using generalized linear mixed models. CCHFV antibodies detected in 84 samples confirmed low CCHFV prevalence in small ...

Case Management of Imported Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever, Senegal, July 2023
We report an imported Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever case in Senegal. The patient received PCR confirmation of virus infection 10 days after symptom onset. We identified 46 patient contacts in Senegal; 87.7% were healthcare professionals. Strengthening border crossing and community surveillance systems can help reduce the risks of infectious disease transmission.PMID:38526304 | DOI:10.3201/eid3004.231492 (Source: Emerging Infectious Diseases)

Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever Virus Seroprevalence in Human and Livestock Populations, Northern Tanzania
Emerg Infect Dis. 2024 Apr;30(4):836-838. doi: 10.3201/eid3004.231204.ABSTRACTWe conducted a cross-sectional study of Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever virus (CCHFV) in northern Tanzania. CCHFV seroprevalence in humans and ruminant livestock was high, as were spatial heterogeneity levels. CCHFV could represent an unrecognized human health risk in this region and should be included as a differential diagnosis for febrile illness.PMID:38526202 | DOI:10.3201/eid3004.231204 (Source: Emerging Infectious Diseases)
