Abstract
Objective: This review examines the link between the COVID-19 pandemic and the outbreak of Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever (CCHF) in Iraq. Methods: We reviewed literature and data to explore potential associations between the two diseases. Results: No direct causative link between COVID-19 and increased CCHF cases in Iraq was found. However, changes in healthcare,agriculture, and human-animal interactions during the pandemic may have indirectly affected CCHF transmission. Conclusion: This review highlights the need for further research to confirm any connections between the COVID-19 pandemic and CCHFoutbreaks in Iraq. Understanding these links is crucial for effective public health responses to emerging infectious diseases.
