Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever virus (CCHFV) was isolated from a pool of two adult Rhipicephalus bursa ticks removed from a goat in 2015 in Greece. The strain clusters into lineage Europe 2 representing the second available whole-genome sequenced isolate of this lineage. CCHFV IgG antibodies were detected in 8 of 19 goats of the farm. Currently CCHFV is not associated with disease in mammals other than humans. Studies in animal models are needed to investigate the pathogenicity level of lineage Europe 2 and compare it with that of other lineages.
克里米亚-刚果出血热病毒(CCHFV)于 2015 年从希腊一只山羊身上采集的两只成年钝缘蜱中分离得到。该毒株属于欧洲 2 谱系,代表该谱系中第二个可用的全基因组测序分离株。在该农场的 19 只山羊中,有 8 只检测到 CCHFV IgG 抗体。目前,除人类以外,CCHFV 与其他哺乳动物的疾病无关。需要在动物模型中进行研究,以调查欧洲 2 谱系的致病性水平,并将其与其他谱系进行比较。
