Attention! A virus spread by mosquitoes is quietly attacking! It's not COVID, not dengue fever, but something called Chikungunya fever! Its most powerful move is making you bend and crouch in pain!
Chikungunya, in African indigenous language, means 'bending', describing how patients bend their knees and waist due to severe joint pain. It's caused by the Chikungunya virus and mainly spreads through Aedes mosquitoes, the common striped mosquitoes we see!
If you get infected, you might face the 'Triple Attack of Pain'! First attack: sudden high fever that puts you in 'barbecue mode'! Second attack: severe joint pain! This is its signature move - wrists and knees feel like being stabbed with needles, so painful you question life! Third attack: mysterious rash, red spots may appear on your body, sometimes very itchy.
