| molecular analysis of crimean-congo hemorrhagic fever virus and rickettsia in hyalomma marginatum ticks removed from patients (spain) and birds (spain and morocco), 2009-2015. | crimean-congo hemorrhagic fever virus (cchfv) was detected in spain in 2010. the presence of cchfv in hyalomma marginatum ticks from migratory birds passing through morocco during the spring migration strengthened the hypothesis of the arrival of infected ticks transported by birds to the iberian peninsula. furthermore, hyalomma species are vectors of bacterial infections such as spotted fever rickettsioses. cchfv and rickettsia were screened in hyalomma ticks from spain attached to patients (n= ... | 2016 | 27215620 |
