Chikungunya&#8217;s symptoms include severe joint aches, fever, and fatigue, according to the\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.cdc.gov\/chikungunya\/symptoms-diagnosis-treatment\/index.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Centers for Disease Control and Prevention<\/a>. Symptoms usually start within three to seven days after a bite from an infected mosquito, the CDC says.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Most people recover within a week, according to the agency, though some experience severe joint pain for months or even years after their illness. Deaths are rare, the CDC says. Newborns infected around the time of birth, people over 65, and people with preexisting medical conditions are most likely to experience severe illness, the CDC says.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>Simultaneously, the communist island has been afflicted by an outbreak of dengue that hit as Cuba battles shortages of clean water, food, fuel and medicine during its worst economic crisis in decades.<\/p>\n<p>Cuba, long known for its medical and pharmaceutical expertise, was able to deal a swift blow to a previous chikungunya outbreak in 2014. There is no specific treatment for the disease, but vaccines are available and recommended for people visiting an area experiencing an outbreak, the CDC says. The disease can&#8217;t be spread from person to person. \u00a0<\/p>\n<p>This time, the one-party state reports, the outbreak spiraled out of control due to &#8220;lack of hygiene, accumulated garbage&#8221; and people storing water in tanks to mitigate the intermittent availability of clean tap water.<\/p>\n<p>With the country under U.S. sanctions and its critical tourism sector left in ruins by Covid, a dearth of foreign currency has seen a steep decline in Cuba&#8217;s medical services and prevention programs such as mosquito fumigation.<\/p>\n<p>The CDC has issued <a href=\"https:\/\/wwwnc.cdc.gov\/travel\/notices#travel-notice-definitions\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">travel notices<\/a> for Americans traveling to countries with chikungunya outbreaks, <a href=\"https:\/\/wwwnc.cdc.gov\/travel\/notices\/level2\/chikungunya-cuba\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">including Cuba<\/a>, advising them to practice increased precautions, including getting vaccinated for chikungunya and taking steps to stave off mosquitoes. <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/news\/us-warns-travelers-chikungunya-virus-mosquitoes-china\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">China<\/a><\/span> and countries near the Indian Ocean, including Madagascar and Kenya, have also been named in travel notices.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>New York saw its <span class=\"link\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbsnews.com\/newyork\/news\/locally-acquired-chikungunya-case-confirmed-in-new-york\/\" target=\"_blank\" data-invalid-url-rewritten-http=\"\">first-ever locally acquired<\/a><\/span> case of chikungunya in October 2025.
