A seroepidemiological survey to determine the prevalence of Crimean-Congo haemorrhagic fever (CCHF) virus and its circulation among animals in Iraq was carried out in 1980. Sera were collected from 2205 animals of different species in three different faunal areas of the country. Sera were tested by complement fixation test for quantitative determination of antibodies to CCHF virus. Among 769 sheep tested 443 (57.6%) were positive; 279 of 562 (49.64%) goat sera; 122 of 411 (29.28%) cattle sera; 148 of 252 (58.73%) horse sera; 23 of 99 (23.23%) camel sera and 5 of 35 (14.28%) sera collected from unclassified small mammals in Iraq have had antibodies to CCHF virus.
1980年开展了一项血清流行病学调查，以确定克里米亚-刚果出血热（CCHF）病毒在伊拉克的流行情况及其在动物中的传播情况。从该国三个不同动物区系的2205只不同物种的动物身上采集了血清。通过补体结合试验检测血清，以定量测定针对CCHF病毒的抗体。在检测的769只绵羊中，443只（57.6%）呈阳性；562只山羊血清中有279只（49.64%）呈阳性；411头牛血清中有122只（29.28%）呈阳性；252匹马血清中有148只（58.73%）呈阳性；99只骆驼血清中有23只（23.23%）呈阳性，从伊拉克未分类的小型哺乳动物采集的35份血清中有5份（14.28%）含有针对CCHF病毒的抗体。
