Crimea-Congo haemorrhagic fever is a tick-borne viral zoonosis with the potential of human-to-human transmission. The disease occurs in extensive areas in Asia, South-eastern Europe and Africa. Haemorrhagic manifestations constitute a prominent symptom of the late disease stage, with case fatality rates from 9 to 50%. The recent increase in the number of cases in Eastern Europe and the potential for nosocomial outbreaks indicate the advisability of diagnosis in every patient hospitalized in Italy with haemorrhagic fever.
克里米亚-刚果出血热是一种由蜱传播的病毒性人畜共患病,具有人际传播的可能性。该疾病发生在亚洲、东南欧和非洲的广大地区。出血表现是疾病晚期的突出症状,病死率为9%至50%。东欧近期病例数的增加以及医院内爆发的可能性表明,对意大利每一位因出血热住院的患者进行诊断是明智的。
