چکیده
Abstract We conducted a serosurvey for Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever virus antibodies in various wildlife species Catalonia, northeastern Spain. detected high seroprevalence southern close to the Ebro Delta wetland, key stopover birds migrating from Africa. Our findings could indicate that competent vectors are present region.

in Mexico (6) and the United States (7). In the United States, several pregnant women died, and the hospitalization rate for pregnant women was 4× higher than for the general population (8). Despite a fairly high birth rate on Reunion Island (19 births/1,000 population), our small series does not support these fi ndings. During the epidemic (July 20– September 20, 2009), acute respiratory infec...
متن کاملCrimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever Virus in Hyalommid Ticks, Northeastern Kenya
As part of ongoing arbovirus surveillance, we screened ticks obtained from livestock in northeastern Kenya in 2008 to assess the risk for human exposure to tick-borne viruses. Of 1,144 pools of 8,600 Hyalomma spp. ticks screened for Congo-Crimean hemorrhagic fever virus by reverse transcription PCR, 23 pools were infected, demonstrating a potential for human exposure.
متن کاملPhylogenetic Characterization of Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever Virus, Spain
Two cases of Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever were reported in Spain during 2016. We obtained the virus from a patient sample and characterized its full genomic sequence. Phylogenetic analysis indicated that the virus corresponds to the African genotype III, which includes viruses previously found in West and South Africa.
متن کاملPhylogeography of Crimean Congo Hemorrhagic Fever Virus
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 of all three segments of 14 Crimean Congo hemorrhagic fever virus strains isolated from 1958-2000 in Russia, Central Asia and Africa was ident...
