We have just returned from Thailand and it looks like we barely escaped a large-scale epidemics. It was associated with a chikungynya virus (CHIKV) but it seems like it is nothing that much dangerous. Is there a vaccine for it? I would like to know that in case we go to South Asia or Africa again.

Well, I don’t think there is any vaccine for that, and I guess it is because this virus does not represent any real danger to people. There are symptoms that are annoying, such as headache, fatigue, nausea and some others, but in a while that will pass. I guess the only effective thing you can do is prevent mosquito bites, since they are the carriers.

Is there any treatment for someone with the babanki virus? How do you treat it? Prevent it?
