This project addresses Chikungunya virus outbreaks, focusing on understanding the virus's pathogenic mechanisms and developing diagnostics and vaccines. It aims to create tools for research and therapeutic interventions against this mosquito-borne disease.
Since 2005 Chikungunya fever has affected millions of people producing a high fever and a debilitating arthralgia which can persist for months and progress to chronic arthritis.
Chikungunya virus has been associated with periodic outbreaks of human disease and is spread by mosquitoes.
The current epidemic rose to prominence in 2005/6 following infection of >250,000 people on La Réunion.
The virus rapidly spread to other islands in the Indian Ocean, India and SE Asia.
