Conclusions
This study gives updated information and could be of interest to support the stakeholders in the management of these zoonoses.
Methods
This work relies on a previous seroprevalence survey undertaken in all regions of Senegal at the end of 2020. The existing biobank was used to determine the immunoglobulin G [IgG] Rift Valley Fever and Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever seroprevalences by indirect enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay.
Results
The crude seroprevalences of Rift Valley Fever and Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever were 3.94% and 0.7% respectively, with the northern and central part of the countries as the main exposed areas. However, acute infections reported in both high and low exposed regions suggest sporadic introductions. Conclusions: This study gives updated information and could be of interest to support the stakeholders in the management of these zoonoses.
