We are pleased to announce the online course “Crimean-Congo Haemorrhagic Fever: Introduction” on OpenWHO. You can access the course through the following link: https://openwho.org/courses/crimean-congo-haemorrhagic-fever-introduction.
Crimean-Congo haemorrhagic fever (CCHF) is a widespread disease caused by a tick-borne virus that can result in severe viral haemorrhagic fever outbreaks, with case fatality rates of 10–40%. CCHF is endemic in Africa, the Balkans, the Middle East and Asian countries south of the 50th parallel north – the geographical limit of the principal tick vector.
This introductory course provides a general introduction to CCHF and is intended for frontline responders engaged in preventing and managing outbreaks.
It will take approximately 1 hour to complete.
