The virus is transmitted to humans by the bite of infected female Aedes mosquitoes, primarily Aedes aegypti. CHIKV infection is spreading worldwide, and it periodically sparks new outbreaks. There are no specific drugs or effective vaccines against CHIKV. The interruption of pathogen transmission by mosquito control provides the only effective approach to the control of CHIKV infection. Many studies have shown that CHIKV can be transmitted among the Ae. aegypti through vertical transmission. The previous chikungunya fever outbreaks in Thailand during 2008–2009 were caused by CHIKV, the East/Central/South African (ECSA) genotype.

  • Thailand Demographic and Health Survey 1987 [FR37]
    Thailand Demographic and Health Survey 1987 B Institute of Population Studies Chulalongkorn University ® DHS Demographic and Health Surveys f' Institute for Resource Development/Westinghouse \ THAILAND DEMOGRAPHIC AND HEALTH SURVEY 1987 by Napaporn Chayovan Peerasit Kamnuansilpa John Knodel Institute of Population Studies Chulalongkorn University Bangkok, Thailand Institute for Resource Development/Westinghouse Columbia, Maryland USA May 1988 Preface Since its founding in 1966, the Institute of Population Studies (IPS) has been responsible for a number of national surveys focusing on family planning and the demographic and socio-economic situation in Thailand. These surveys included the National Longitudinal Study of Social, Economic and Demographic Change conducted in 1969/70 and again in 1972/73, the Survey of Fertility in Thailand conducted in 1975 as part of the World Fertility Survey, and the National Survey on Family Planning Practices, Fertility and Mortality in 1979. The Thai Demographic and Health Survey (TDHS), conducted in 1987, represents a continuation of this tradition in survey taking at IPS. At the same time, however, the TDH$ has also broadened the Institute's experience in several ways. Not only is it the largest survey in terms of the number of respondents undertaken so far by IPS, but it is the first large scale survey in Thailand to deal in significant detail with health topics including anthropometric measures of children under 3 years of age and their mother~. Because of the inclusion of health topics, the IPS staff has gained new experience and skills which should prove valuable in the future when new surveys are conducted. The purpose of the TDHS is to provide current and accurate data on fertility, mortality, family planning and selected indicators of health status to be used for program assessment and guidance and for scientific analysis to further our understanding of the demographic and health situation in Thailand.
