Epidemiological study of the 2023 Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever outbreak in Iraq
Objectives
Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) is a tick-borne virus disease that is of a high concern for global health care systems because there is no specific treatment or vaccination available for it yet. The disease is endemic in several countries around the world and humans can get infected with the virus through the tick bites or by coming into contact with tissues or blood of the infected animals. This study aimed to describe the epidemiology of the disease in Iraq from January 1, 2023 to June 18, 2023.
Methods
This is a retrospective study and the epidemiological data of CCHF in Iraq within the first 6 months of 2023 were kindly provided by the Sulaymaniyah directory of the World Health Organization/Iraq.
Results
Overall, 229 CCHF cases and 36 deaths were recorded during this study. The majority of the cases were aged between 15 and 45 years, and the gender distribution ratio of males to females was 61% and 39%, respectively.
Conclusions
CCHF is an extremely severe disease that poses a threat to the public health. The hyper-endemic status of CCHF in Iraq is continuing and the number of cases has increased in 2023 compared with 2022.
