September 29, 2010January 25, 2023 Lakshmi Yajurvedi


After the first native cases of Dengue were reported in Metropolitan France, a new disease has emerged. The first two native cases of Chikungunya in Metropolitan France were reported.

Chikungunya is a viral disease that can cause debilitating illness with fever, joint pain, muscle pain, and vomiting.
