Popis: Highlights • CCHF in pregnancy is rare but has high rates of maternal (34%) and fetal mortality (59%). • Maternal hemorrhage is associated with maternal and fetal/neonatal death. • Nosocomial transmission of CCHF from 6/37 index pregnant cases resulted in 38 cases. • Early recognition and risk-assessment allows appropriate IP & C precautions and supportive care provision.
