Abstract

Background and purpose: Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever is a zoonotic disease that has been reported from different parts of Iran. The aim of this study was to investigate the SEROEPIDEMIOLOGY of Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever in HIGH RISK professions in Yasuj, Iran.Materials and methods: The present study included 108 subjects at risk; 34 butchers, 20 slaughters, 14 slaughter-house workers, 20 waiters, and 20 housewives were randomly selected. After completing the demographic characteristics and history of febrile diseases, blood samples were obtained and specific IgG antibodies against Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever virus were tested. The collected data were analyzed with descriptive statistics and percentages and chi-square tests.Results: Of the 108 subjects, 5 (4.6 percent) with positive serology were among restaurant the workers 2 (10 percent) and slaughterers 3 (15 percent), respectively, which was statistically significant.There were no positive serologies in the other groups.Conclusion: The present study showed that the SEROEPIDEMIOLOGY of Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever in HIGH RISK professions is not highly prevalent in Yasuj, Iran. However, the need for further surveillance and prevention programs is still recommended.
