Prevention of Chikungunya

Specific treatment is not available and there is no vaccine for the prevention of Chikungunya fever. In Malaysia, fogging is the main way to prevent and control the outbreaks. In addition, we also can protect our self by treated and removed all stagnant water. Stagnant water is where the infecting mosquito Aedes aegypti breeds. So, we have to beware now! Don't go out from your house especially in the dawn and dusk periods because this is the feeding period of the Aedes aegypti mosquito.
