Abstract

From two major hospitals in Kuwait 502 sera were randomly selected from patients during the period December 1979 to October 1982. Serological investigations demonstrated Flavivirus activity in the area and antibody to Congo/Crimean haemorrhagic fever virus was found in 4% of the samples. Clinical data indicate that some cases may have been due to recent Congo/Crimean virus infection.
