Here, we report the complete genome sequences of two Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever virus (CCHFV) strains, 79121M18 and YL04057, isolated in Xinjiang, China. Sequence analysis showed that they represent a genotype of CCHFV that has not been reported before.

From February to August 2003, 38 persons were infected with Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) virus in Mauritania; 35 of these persons were residents of Nouakchott. The first patient was a young woman who became ill shortly after butchering a goat. She transmitted the infection to 15 persons in the hospital where she was admitted and four members of her family. In Nouakchott, two disease c...

Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever is a fatal viral disease that occurs in some parts of Africa, Asia, Eastern Europe and the Middle-East. Primarily it is a zoonosis but can be seen sporadically in humans. Recently outbreaks have been reported from Pakistan, Afghanistan, Saudi Arabia, United Arab Emirates and Iran. In this retrospective study, we evaluated the efficacy of oral Ribavirin in the...

results primary, secondary, and 3d structure of cchfv gn were obtained and pcr reaction with m13 forward and reverse primers confirmed the generation of recombinant bacmid dna harboring gn coding region under polyhedron promoter. conclusions characterization of the detailed structure of cchfv gn by bioinformatics software provides the basis for development of new experiments and construction of...

background: crimean-congo hemorrhagic fever (cchf) is an acute tick-borne viral, zoonotic disease with hemorrhagic manifestations and considerable mortality in humans. the purpose of this study was to introduce cchf as a case report from babol, north of iran. it is known as an endemic pathogen in some regions of iran.case presentation: we present a case of cchf suffering from sudden onset of fe...

Background: We aimed to determine diagnostic sensitivity and specificity of clinical laboratory findings in patients with Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF).

conclusions the viral load in patients who suffer from cchf has a direct significant correlation with disease severity. viral load above 8.6 × 105 copies/ml on the first day of admission is a predictor of severe cchf. background crimean-congo hemorrhagic fever (cchf) is an endemic disease in south eastern of iran, especially in sistan and baluchestan province. cchf is a potentially fatal diseas...

The major arboviral diseases in mainland China include Japanese encephalitis, dengue fever, Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (also known as Xinjiang hemorrhagic fever), and tick-borne encephalitis. These and other newly found arbovirus infections due to Banna virus and Tahyna virus contribute to a large and relatively neglected disease burden in China. Here we briefly review the literature regar...
