CDC warns travelers about chikungunya in Cuba, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, and Guangdong, China.
The CDC has issued Level 2 travel advisories for Cuba, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, and Guangdong Province in China due to ongoing chikungunya outbreaks, a mosquito-borne virus with no specific treatment.
Travelers are urged to prevent mosquito bites using repellent, long clothing, and screened or air-conditioned accommodations.
Symptoms include fever, joint and muscle pain, headache, and rash, with joint pain sometimes lasting weeks or months.
The outbreaks are most active in warmer months, with significant cases reported in Dhaka, Guangdong, and other regions.
The U.S. has not seen local transmission since 2019, and the risk to the general public remains low.
