Chikungunya and Zika in America and Mexico
Keywords:
Chikungunya, Zika, Arbovirosis, Microcephaly, Guillian-BarréAbstract
Recently, several countries in Latin America, including Mexico, have been affected by outbreaks of Chinkungunya and Zika viruses (arboviruses). Both viruses, transmitted by the bite of several species of mosquitoes of the Aedes genus, cause similar febrile illnesses. The entry of these virus to America, their rapidly spreading as well as the possible association between Zika infection with microcephaly and Guillain-Barre syndrome have caused global concern in the last few months. Despite that a vaccine or treatment against these viral infections is not yet available, simple practices as: 1) to avoid mosquito bites and 2) to control their population density are an important key to control arbovirosis. For that it is important to review the most relevant aspects of both infections.
