Serological evaluation of Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic fever in humans with High-Risk professional exposure and in residual sera collected in 2022-2023 across Corsica (France)
This study provides initial evidence of human exposure to CCHFV in Corsica, with rates consistent with those observed in other Western European regions. Our results indicate a risk of CCHF among the Corsican population, particularly among farmers and slaughterhouse workers. Continuous surveillance and public education are essential to mitigate this risk, especially among these targeted groups and healthcare professionals, ensuring prompt diagnosis and prevention of potential outbreaks.
