TRICHY: Most residents of Koundampatti village in Manachanallur taluk are visiting hospitals near and far after the outbreak of a strange fever. More than 150 families in the entire village show symptoms of an illness which doctors' say is most likely chikungunya.

Doctors, who initially treated the villagers at a primary health centre located at Moovanur, 8 km from the village, said 51 people were diagnosed for the same symptoms. However, they are yet to conclude the disease as chikungunya itself.
