| | {{About1|Chikungunya virus}} |
| Chikungunya is generally not fatal. However, in [[2005]]-[[2006]], 200 deaths were associated with chikungunya on [[Réunion]] island and a widespread outbreak in [[India]], primarily in [[Tamil Nadu]], [[Karnataka]], [[Kerala]], and [[Andhra Pradesh]]. After flood and heavy rains in [[Rajasthan]], [[India]] in August 2006, thousands of cases were detected in [[Rajsamand]], [[Bhilwara]], [[Udaipur]], and [[Chittorgarh]] districts and also in adjoining regions of [[Gujarat]] and [[Madhya Pradesh]], and in the neighbouring country of [[Sri Lanka]]. In the southern Indian state of Kerala, 125 deaths were attributed to Chikungunya with the majority of the casualties reported in the district of [[Alapuzha]], primarily in [[Cherthala]]. In December 2006, an outbreak of 3,500 confirmed cases occurred in [[Maldives]], and over 60,000 cases in Sri Lanka, with over 80 deaths. [http://www.haveeru.com.mv/?page=engdetails&id=13333]. In October 2006 more than a dozen cases of Chikungunya were reported in [[Pakistan]]. A recent outbreak of the disease during June 2007 in [[Pathanamthitta]], [[Kottayam]] and [[Alappuzha]] districts of South Kerala, India claimed more than 50 lives. It is confirmed officially that there are 7000 confirmed Chikungunya patients in these areas. Unofficial reports suggest that more than one hundred thousand are suffering from symptoms of chikungunya.{{Fact|date=July 2007}}. The European Network for Diagnostics of "Imported" Viral Diseases [http://www.enivd.de/index.htm] claims that new phylogenetic variants of the virus which are fatal have been identified on Réunion. [http://www.enivd.de/index.htm]. In August/September 2007 some 160 people were infected in Italy's northern [[Ravenna]] region, resulting in one fatality.
