How to distinguish Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever from flu? Expert explained

Influenza , Crimean-Congo Hemorrhagic Fever and allergy cases have been on the rise recently. Since allergies do not cause high fever, they are easy to distinguish, but since the other two diseases cause viral infections, their symptoms are similar. Speaking to NTV on the subject, Infectious Diseases Specialist Sıla Akhan said, "Many viruses have a common beginning. There are symptoms that can be called fever and weakness, muscle aches. Crimean-Congo is a viral infection. There are also seasonal circulating viruses that circulate such as Sars covid influenza and RSV vinovirus." HOW DO THEY KNOW WHICH DISEASE THEY HAVE? Akhan said, "There is definitely a cough and sneezing with the flu. Crimean-Congo, on the other hand, tends to bleed by dropping blood elements." "THERE IS INFECTION" "They should definitely check themselves once for a tick," said Akhan, and continued as follows: "If there is a fever, a person's fever should definitely be examined.

You need to see a doctor. It would be better not to wait for it to go away on its own.

If there is a fever, there is an infection there."
