Resumo

Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever virus (CCHFV) and Hazara virus (HAZV), members of the Nairoviridae family, are transmitted to mammals by tick bites. CCHFV is considered a severe threat to public health and causes hemorrhagic diseases with a high mortality rate, and there are neither preventative nor therapeutic medications against CCHFV disease.
