vector-borne zoonotic diseases, caused by a tick-borne virus (Orthonairovirus) of the Nairoviridae family (Order Bunyavirales); CCHF virus is transmitted to people either by tick bites (mainly by Hyalomma spp. ticks) or through contact with infected animal blood or tissues during and immediately after slaughter. Livestock (small ruminants and cows) and wildlife do not show clinical signs of the disease. People involved are mainly from the livestock industry, slaughterhouse workers and veterinarians. Human-to-human transmission can also occur, resulting from close contact with the blood, secretions, organs or other bodily fluids of infected persons. The disease can be found in wild and domestic animals cows, sheep, goat and small mammals like rodents.
