Abstract: Crimean Congo virus that causes hemorrhagic fever belongs to Bunyaviridea family [1] and genus Nairoviridea [2]. First case of this disease was inspected in Tajisktan in 12th century [3] however this disease gained more attention in 1944 when about 200 military officers of Soviet Union died of this infectious disease at the place of Crimea so named as Crimean Congo hemorrhagic fever. Its etiology was studied by inducing fever in psychiatric patients by inoculating them with virus obtained from the blood of CCHF patients.
