SHINING A SPOTLIGHT ON AFRICAN RESEARCH

medicine

Chikungunya virus, Cameroon, 2006

Emerging Infectious Diseases, Volume 13, No. 5, Year 2007

We report the isolation of chikungunya virus from a patient during an outbreak of a denguelike syndrome in Cameroon in 2006. The virus was phylogenetically grouped in the Democratic Republic of the Congo cluster, indicating a continuous circulation of a genetically similar chikungunya virus population during 6 years in Central Africa.
