Seroepidemiology of Congo virus (related to the virus of Crimean haemorrhagic fever) in Nigeria.

T S David-West, A R Cooke, A S David-West.   

Abstract

A survey for neutralizing antibodies to Congo virus was carried out in Nigeria. Of a total sample population of 250, comprising 141 males and 109 females, 9 males and 15 females had antibody levels >/= 1.5 log neutralization index. In the age group 0-10 years 4 of 84 males and 14 of 79 females had antibody levels >/= 1.5 log neutralization index. There was no evidence of nonspecific antiviral activity in the sera tested.
