To investigate Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever virus in Turkey, we conducted a seroepidemiologic survey during January-April 2009. Seroprevalence of infection was 10% in a sample from an outbreak region and increased with patient age, indicating that the virus had been previously present in Turkey. We also estimated that 88% of infections were subclinical.
为了调查克里米亚-刚果出血热病毒在土耳其的情况,我们在 2009 年 1 月至 4 月期间进行了血清流行病学调查。在一个暴发地区的样本中,感染的血清流行率为 10%,且随着患者年龄的增长而增加,这表明该病毒此前在土耳其已经存在。我们还估计,88%的感染是无症状的。
