Crimean-Congo haemorrhagic fever (CCHF) is an emerging severe tick-borne illness. The expanding habitat of Hyalomma ticks, coupled with migratory birds harbouring CCHF-infected ticks, contributes to an increasing number of potential hosts. The seroprevalence of anti-CCHF virus antibodies in livestock is approximately one-quarter, with a noticeable upward trend in recent years. The management of CCHF patients predominantly relies on supportive therapy, although a potential arsenal of antivirals, convalescent and hyperimmune plasma, monoclonal antibodies, and vaccines exists, both currently and in the future. This review aims to critically examine the current therapeutic approaches to managing CCHF, highlighting both the potential and limitations of existing treatments, and identifying future directions for improving patient outcomes.
