"We have received reports from several residents in the area. We are conducting epidemiological investigations as well to confirm that it is indeed chikungunya. This needs further attention. Moreover, the condition is also like this [the Covid-19 pandemic is still ongoing]," said Anggit Budiarto, to Solopos.com, Sunday (12/19/2021).
Anggit Budiarto said the symptoms of chikungunya are almost the same as dengue hemorrhagic fever (DHF). Among the symptoms, such as high fever and aches.
