Viral Load as Predictor of Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever Outcome

Viral Load as Predictor of Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever Outcome

We used quantitative real-time reverse transcription–PCR to measure viral load in serum from 24 patients in Kosovo who had acute Crimean-Congo hemorrhagic fever. Viral load correlated with clinical disease and antibodies and could be used as a predictor of disease outcome.
