Cross-sectional Serosurvey of Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever Virus IgG in Livestock, India, 2013–2014

Abstract: We conducted a cross-sectional serosurvey of Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) among livestock in 22 states and 1 union territory of India. A total of 5,636 samples from bovines, sheep, and goats were screened for CCHF virus IgG. IgG was detected in 354 samples, indicating that this virus is widespread in this country.

“…Since its first detection, many nosocomial outbreaks and sporadic cases have been investigated and confirmed in Gujarat and the adjoining Rajasthan State, including a nosocomial outbreak in Ahmadabad, Gujarat State, in 2011 (Makwana et al, 2015; Mishra et al, 2011; Mourya et al, 2012; Yadav et al, 2013a; Yadav et al, 2016, 2014). Pragya also summarized the results of various studies, including surveys in ticks and a survey of anti-CCHFV IgG antibodies in livestock (Mourya et al, 2014a,b; Mourya et al, 2015). Animal serosurveys are considered very useful in indicating virus prevalence in an area; tick studies are less indicative, as the appropriate number of ticks that must be collected to be useful and predictive is not clear (Gurav et al, 2014; Mourya et al, 2014a,b; Mourya et al, 2015; Yadav et al, 2013b).…”

“…This indicated that trade of livestock and consequent movements of domestic animals infested with infected ticks may be the reason for the spread of CCHFV to newer areas 42 . Further, a cross-sectional serosurvey of CCHFV in livestock from 22 States and one Union Territory reported that this virus was widespread in the livestock population of India 43 . With the increasing spread of CCHFV to newer regions of the country, it becomes imperative to conduct regular surveillance programmes for human and animals.…”
