TCI reports additional cases of chikungunya
Published on June 20, 2014
The ministry of health and human services has received confirmation of an additional four positive cases of chikungunya. This brings the total number of positive cases for the TCI to six. In addition, the ministry of health is also closely monitoring dengue fever cases, as a number have recently been reported. These individuals will be followed up according to established protocols and procedures.
Chikungunya is a viral illness which is spread by the bite of an infected Aedes aegypti mosquito. Chikungunya was first identified in the Caribbean region in December 2013 in St Martin and has subsequently spread to affect 18 countries in the Caribbean. The disease has progressively spread across the region through close trade and travel links between the Caribbean islands and has even resulted in imported cases being identified in Florida.
