Abstract

Crimean–Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF) one of zoonotic viral tick born disease can infect both animals and human. Occupational persons which they are in direct contact with animals were at high risk . The disease infect animals by silent form and humans by severe type.

The highest results recorded according to age : butchers (2/19) 10.526 % with ages <30 year while veterinarians recorded (4/36) 11.111 % with age 33-43 years. Education degree: uneducated and secondary graduate degree butchers (2/11) 18.181 % and veterinarians (5/43) 11.627 % with under graduate degree. Finally according to living type: butchers (8/78) 10.256 % and veterinarians (5/28) 17.857 % that were living in districts and townships gave the highest result on the contrary to those living in the center of the city.
