First evidence of Crimean‐Congo haemorrhagic fever virus circulation in Bosnia and Herzegovina

Abstract

This is the first report of anti-CCHFV antibodies in sheep from B&H providing the evidence of CCHFV circulation in the country's sheep population. So far, these findings indicate the circulation of the virus in the westernmost region of the Balkans and point to the potential CCHFV spread further out of this endemic area.
