Abstract :

Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever (CCHF) is a tick-borne viral disease that poses serious health risks, especially in areas where livestock farming is common. Although human cases with symptoms are extensively reported, the occurrence of asymptomatic infections in animals is an overlooked area in CCHF research. These animals can unknowingly harbor the virus, contributing to its spread through tick vectors or direct human exposure to infected tissues. This piece highlights the difficulties in identifying these silent infections in livestock and recommends improved veterinary monitoring methods to reduce the risk of animal-to-human transmission.
