Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) is a tick-borne disease endemic to many regions of Africa, the Middle East, Southeast Asia and Balkans. Caused by CCHF virus (CCHFV), has been recognized cause illness in Uganda since 1950s recently, more intensive surveillance suggests CCHFV widely within country. Most focused on Ugandan cattle corridor due risk exposure associated with livestock practices. Here we evaluated seroprevalence several Southern communities outside combined longitudinal sample sets measure immune response for up decade. Interestingly, across three community types, agrarian, trading fishing, detected all but found highest fishing communities. We also measured consistent CCHFV-specific antibody responses Our findings support conclusion that highlight additional may be at exposure.

The Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever virus (CCHFV) is a tick-borne pathogen known to cause severe viral fever. We aimed evaluate the potential circulation of CCHFV in Corsica through serosurvey, including anonymized residual sera (RS) and high-risk individuals exposed animals and/or tick bites due occupational activities. This cross-sectional study involved two groups: RS from medical biology laboratories (slaughterhouse workers, veterinary professionals, animal farmers, rangers) collected across during 2022-2023. Antibodies targeting nucleoprotein were detected using double-antigen ELISA. ELISA-positive samples underwent neutralizing antibody testing. Sociodemographic epidemiological data structured questionnaire group. Total anti-CCHFV seropositivity was 0.08 % (n = 2) [95 Confidence Interval (CI): 0.06-0.09] 0.50 1) CI: 0.43-0.56] groups (p < 0.01). Lifetime tick-bites reported by 65.9 118) respondents, with higher rates among farmers (Odds Ratio (OR) 3.4; 95 CI 1.4-8.5) participants >10 years exposure (OR 3.8; 1.7-8.5). provides initial evidence human Corsica, consistent those observed other Western European regions. Our results indicate risk CCHF Corsican population, particularly slaughterhouse workers. Continuous surveillance public education are essential mitigate this risk, especially these targeted healthcare ensuring prompt diagnosis prevention outbreaks.
