Pakistan, particularly Karachi, has been grappling with a significant surge in Chikungunya cases since at least May this year. The outbreak is part of a broader increase in mosquito-borne diseases, including malaria and dengue, linked to rising temperatures.

Since there is no specific treatment or vaccine available, management focuses on relieving symptoms. Patients are advised to get plenty of rest, stay hydrated, and seek symptomatic treatment.
