Abstract :

A severe threat to both human and bovine populations is the zoonotic disease known as Crimean Congo Hemorrhagic Fever (CCHF). Although direct contact with infected blood or bodily fluids can also transfer the virus, tick bites are the main way in which it is propagated. Because they can act as virus reservoirs and accelerate the virus's propagation. Cattle play a crucial role in the CCHF transmission cycle. To stop the spread of CCHF in cattle and safeguard public health, preventive measures like immunization, tick management, and biosecurity measures are required.
