Abstract

The recent developments of viral illnesses are vector- borne, such as Chikungunya and dengue fever, and other similar diseases, have raised significant global concern. In this paper, we provide a comprehensive overview of the existing literature pertaining to the transmission, clinical manifestations, diagnostic methods, global impact, and the likelihood of future outbreaks associated with these viral pathogens. Arboviruses are difficult to identify and can cause unexpected clinical consequences. Dengue and chikungunya are the most common arboviruses caused infections worldwide, particularly in tropical and subtropical areas. The transmission of these diseases to human beings is facilitated by the Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus mosquito species. The spread of Aedes aegypti is mostly responsible for the rise in dengue and chikungunya cases in India. The expeditious and accurate identification of dengue is of utmost importance in effectively managing and containing epidemics of this disease. In light of the lack of an available vaccine or targeted pharmaceutical intervention for these viruses, the most comprehensive strategy currently available is vector control.
