Aedes mosquitoes, responsible for CHIKV transmission, were previously restricted to the tropical and subtropical regions of the world but increased globalization has resulted in their worldwide spread. Currently, however, there are no vaccines or effective therapies for CHIKV infection, leaving infected people to rely on their immune system to fight the disease. Chikungunya Virus: Advances in Biology, Pathogenesis, and Treatment details the exciting discoveries that have been made in various aspects of CHIKV research, including: · epidemiology · biology · mechanisms of infection and pathogenesis · host response to infection · clinical syndromes and therapy Written by leading experts, the book provides a unique resource on CHIKV, intended for researchers, clinicians, educators, public health officials, and the general public. 606 $aVirology 606 $aEpidemiology 606 $aVaccines 606 $aVirology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B22003 606 $aEpidemiology$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/H63000 606 $aVaccine$3https://scigraph.springernature.com/ontologies/product-market-codes/B16010 615 0$aVirology. 615 0$aEpidemiology. 615 0$aVaccines. 615 14$aVirology. 615 24$aEpidemiology. 615 24$aVaccine. 676 $a616.9101 702 $aOkeoma$b Chioma M$4edt$4http://id.loc.gov/vocabulary/relators/edt 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910155329003321 996 $aChikungunya Virus$92597012 997 $aUNINA
