About chikungunya vaccine.

A chikungunya vaccine is an active immunizing biologic designed to stimulate the immune system to prevent disease caused by the chikungunya virus.

Formulated as live-attenuated or recombinant virus-like particle preparations, these vaccines work by eliciting neutralizing antibodies and protective immune responses against the mosquito-borne alphavirus.

Their therapeutic role is active prophylaxis against chikungunya virus infection and its associated manifestations, including acute febrile illness, rash, and debilitating acute or chronic polyarthralgia.
