A recent study in The Lancet Infectious Diseases finds chikungunya patients face heightened mortality risk for three months post-infection

A recent study in The Lancet Infectious Diseases finds chikungunya patients face heightened mortality risk for three months post-infection

New research suggests that people infected with chikungunya remain at risk of death for three months after infection.
The study published in The Lancet Infectious Diseases journal analysed almost 1.5 lakh recorded chikungunya infections using data from the 100 Million Brazilian Cohort. It found that chikungunya patients had an increased risk of death through cardiovascular conditions and kidney diseases.
According to PTI, Chikungunya is a viral disease transmitted by mosquitoes to humans. Most commonly, the virus is transmitted by Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus mosquitoes, more commonly known as yellow fever and tiger mosquitoes, respectively.
While most patients recover fully, chikungunya disease can prove fatal. Despite infections going largely unreported, approximately five lakh cases and over 400 deaths were recorded worldwide in 2023, the researchers said.
<h3>Prevention for chikungunya</h3>
Mosquito Bite Prevention: Use insect repellent, wear long sleeves and pants, and use mosquito nets to reduce exposure to Aedes mosquitoes, which transmit the virus.
Eliminate Mosquito Breeding Sites: Remove standing water around your home where mosquitoes breed, such as in flower pots, buckets, and containers.
Protective Clothing: Wear clothing that covers your skin to minimize mosquito bites, especially during peak mosquito activity times.
Stay Indoors: Limit outdoor activities, especially during dawn and dusk when mosquitoes are most active.
Screen Windows and Doors: Install screens on windows and doors to prevent mosquitoes from entering your home.

10 Hafte-10 Baje-10 Minute: Delhi Chief Minister Arvind&nbsp;Kejriwal&nbsp;launches anti-dengue&nbsp;campaign in the capital

Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal launched his government's anti-dengue campaign, which is now in its second year, on Sunday.
Called '10 Hafte-10 Baje-10 Minute', the campaign aims to tackle dengue and other vector-borne diseases like chikungunya and malaria.
As a part of the initiative, the Chief Minister inspected his house for stagnant water and urged citizens to do the same for the next 10 weeks. Delhi had reported 2036 cases of dengue and two deaths in 2019.
Deputy CM Manish Sisodia, other members of the Aam Aadmi Party and volunteers also joined the drive and posted photos of themselves on social media.
People are expected to take out 10 minutes, every Sunday at 10 am for 10 weeks to check for accumulation of any stagnant water in their homes.
