After the deadly disease Dengue, it now Chikanguniya which is raising its head in the capital and it is becoming a cause of concern.
Most of the posh colonies in Delhi have reported the occurences of the disaese with people having symptoms like high fever,joint pains,low energy levles,vomiting, acute headache & rashes. Symptoms are similar to Dengue but it is not fatal in nature.
The virus responsible for the disese is supposed to be transmitted from the bite of infected Aedes aegypti or Aedes albopictus mosquitoes.Monkeys and other wild animals can also serve as reservoirs of virus.
