ABSTRACT
Crimean Congo Hemorrhagic Fever [CCHF] is a tick-borne viral disease with a major reservoir in both domestic and wild animals. In Pakistan, it is endemic largely in rural areas and most cases occur in spring and autumn. Recently, cases are being reported throughout the year, including winter months, with some even from urban areas. Death from CCHF is most likely to occur during the hemorrhagic phase. We report a case presenting from an urban locality in December. Clinical presentation was characterized by a prolonged hemorrhagic phase and a delayed normalization of platelet counts
