Abstract :
Chikungunya Infection is generally known as Chikungunya Fever which is caused by a Chikungunya Virus belonging to the family Togaviridae (Genus: Alpha Virus). It is primarily an arbovirus (virus carried by an arthropod) that is spread by mosquitoes. Due to similar symptoms and transmission methods, it was for a long time thought to be a member of the dengue virus family. It is considered as an emerging threat for the human health.
