How is chikungunya transmitted in Singapore?
In Singapore, chikungunya spreads through bites from infected Aedes mosquitoes. These mosquitoes breed in stagnant water, such as uncovered containers or discarded items. Transmission occurs when a mosquito bites an infected person and then bites a healthy one. No direct human-to-human transmission exists, but travelers can introduce the virus from other regions.
