VIDEO: Dr. Fauci: What you need to know about chikungunya

The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention on July 17 reported the first two cases in the United States of locally acquired chikungunya –but the announcement wasn’t a big surprise to researchers who follow the patterns of emerging and reemerging diseases.

In an article in the New England Journal of Medicine, Dr. Anthony S. Fauci, director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, predicted the arrival of the mosquito-borne illness in the United States just 2 days before the CDC announcement.

In a video interview in his office at NIAID, Dr. Fauci talks about the epidemiology and pathogenesis of the disease and shares his advice on diagnosis and treatment.
