The health department of Balkh province reported that in the past week 10 positive cases of Crimean-Congo haemorrhagic fever (CCHF) have been recorded in north region of the country, and two people have died.
Local Balkh officials said that incidents of this illness were rising in the country's north, and they urged religious leaders and the media to warn people about the dangers associated with the disease’s spread.
"10 positive cases of Congo have been recorded; sadly, we had two deaths. The Abu Ali Sinai regional hospital in Balkh has its own particular preparations, and the 50-bed Antani hospital is also ready,” said Najibullah Tawana, director of the health department of Balkh.
"The media has a special responsibility to save the wellness of a Muslim brother, protect him from illness, and provide them with awareness in the health section,” said Zabihullah Noorani, director of the department of information and culture of Balkh.
According to the US's Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), transmission to humans occurs through "contact with infected ticks or animal blood," and CCHF "can be transmitted from one infected human to another by contact with infectious blood or body fluids."
"We try and tell all the scholars to inform the people about the Congo disease,” said Saifuddin Azizi, head of the department of Hajj and Islamic Affairs of Balkh.
A resident of the province of Balkh, Ahmad Zubair, said that one of his relatives who kept livestock, recently became ill with Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever (CCHF).
"He was gushing blood from his mouth and nose. They told us that the patient had Congo when we brought him to the hospital,” said Ahmad Zubair.

Earlier this year in the UK. The next big scare?
“Case of deadly Crimean-Congo haemorrhagic fever detected in UK”

WTH? Fancy name for flu? OMG OMG WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE!
Wait, the use of the word Congo is racist , right, just like Wuhan virus is. 🤪
Not Ebola , but close enough .
Has Bill Gates paid them a visit lately?

Given that ivermectin has antiviral properties against many viral vectors, I wouldn’t rule it out as a treatment.
“Blaming the Congo instead of their goat girlfriends.”
Why would they blame me (Doctor Congo)? I have never been to that part of the world.
Seriously though, it is either transmitted via a tick vector called Hyalomma or through contact with infected fluids of humans or animals. I assume it could be spread through gay sex and become a new Monkey Pox scenario.
It’s always something.
Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.
The purpose of the “Bring Out Your Dead” ping list (formerly the “Ebola” ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.
The false positive rate was 100%.
At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the “Bring Out Your Dead” threads will miss the beginning entirely.
*sigh* Such is life, and death...
Quarantine the sick. Protect the vulnerable. Hang the guilty. Free everyone else.

"According to the US's Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), transmission to humans occurs through "contact with infected ticks or animal blood,"
and CCHF "can be transmitted from one infected human to another by contact with infectious blood or body fluids."
When infected, the patient symptoms most frequently reported as a simultaneous issue of blood loss via the nose and mouth, and is accompanied by a high fever.
Hyalomma... pronounced Ya-Momma. The H is silent. 😁
I got it from Ya-momma!
If the CDC is involved, I would. They would not administer it for River Blindness, much less anything else.
B@st@rds!
I’ve already begun accumulating a sufficient quantity
p
Next stop eagle pass?
More than the H should be silent…….the post makes no sense .
