Introduction Chikungunya (CHIKV) and Dengue (DENV which is divided into 4 serotypes, 1 to 4) viruses are both arthropod-borne viruses belonging respectively to the genus Alphavirus, Togaviridae family and Flavivirus, Flaviviridae family, and transmitted to humans via a bite of infected Aedes mosquitoes (Aedes aegypti, Aedes albopictus).

BackgroundIn Colombia, the dengue virus (DENV) has been endemic for decades, and with the recent entry of the chikungunya virus (CHIKV) (2014) and the Zika virus (ZIKV) (2015), health systems are overloaded because the diagnosis of these three diseases is based on clinical symptoms, and the three diseases share a symptomatology
Tocontribute to the prevention of dengue, chikungunya, and Zika, a process of scaling up an innovative intervention to reduce Aedes aegypti habitats, was carried out in the city of Salto (Uruguay) based on a transdisciplinary analysis of the eco-bio-social determinants. The intervention in one-third of the city included the distributions of plastic bags for all
Whencomparing the clinical features of patients with Zika mono-infection with those of patients with chikungunya mono-infection, patients diagnosed with Zika infection presented more often with facial weakness, quadriparesis, or hyporeflexia on examination and were more often diagnosed with PNS disease (26 [63%] of 41 patients with Zika infection vs

Arbovirusdiseases such as dengue, Zika, and chikungunya are a public health threat in tropical and subtropical areas. In the absence of a vaccine or specific treatment, vector management (in this case the control of the primary vector Aedes aegypti) is the best practice to prevent the three diseases. A good understanding of vector
Thetypes of specimens that are collected and laboratory techniques that are performed for chikungunya and Zika diagnosis are also reviewed. Laboratory techniques covered in the chapter include reverse transcription–polymerase chain reaction, virus isolation in cell culture, enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay, plaque reduction neutralization test, and
Weidentified Zika, dengue chikungunya by RT-PCR in serum and urine. We compared characteristics between patients with confirmed Zika and dengue infections,

TheZika, dengue and chikungunya prevention modules and toolkit were developed to initiate a long-term engagement with the communities at risk through awareness and health promotion materials.
Aedesaegypti mosquito. Dengue viruses are spread to people through the bites of infected Aedes species mosquitoes ( Ae. aegypti or Ae. albopictus ). These are the same types of mosquitoes that spread Zika and chikungunya viruses. These mosquitoes typically lay eggs near standing water in containers that hold water, like buckets, bowls,
Denguefever, chikungunya fever, and zika virus infections are increasing public health problems in the world, the last two diseases having recently emerged in Brazil. This ecological study employed spatial analysis of probable cases of dengue fever, chikungunya fever, and zika virus infections reported to the National Mandatory
Atwo-tube multiplex real-time reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) assay for the simultaneous detection of Zika virus (ZIKV), chikungunya virus (CHIKV), dengue virus (DENV), yellow fever virus (YFV), West Nile virus (WNV), and Japanese encephalitis virus (JEV) was developed and optimized with high specificity and sensitivity.
Denguefever is a disease spread through the bite of an infected female Aedes mosquito. The disease affects more than 400 million people worldwide each year. USVI is considered endemic for the disease, meaning dengue cases or a dengue outbreak can occur at any time. Symptoms are like a bad flu, including high fever, joint and muscle pain, pain
