Asymptomatic Dengue Virus Infections, Cambodia, 2012-2013.(RESEARCH)

Annually, [approximately equal to] 390 million people in >100 countries are infected with dengue virus (DENV); 70% of cases occur in countries in Asia (1).

Article Description

Chikungunya virus (CHIKV), probably Asian genotype, was fi rst detected in Cambodia in 1961. Despite no evidence of acute or recent CHIKV infections since 2000, real-time reverse transcription PCR of serum collected in 2011 detected CHIKV, East Central South African genotype. Spatiotemporal patterns and phylogenetic clustering indicate that the virus probably originated in Thailand.
