We identified 78 imported chikungunya cases in Taiwan during 2006-2014. Sixty-six (84.6%) cases were initially suspected to be dengue, which indicates the necessity for laboratory diagnostics in differentiation between dengue and chikungunya. Results also emphasize the need for active surveillance of febrile illness at points of entry.
2006年至2014年期间,我们在台湾确认了78例输入性基孔肯雅热病例。其中66例(84.6%)最初被怀疑为登革热,这表明在登革热和基孔肯雅热的鉴别诊断中进行实验室诊断的必要性。研究结果还强调了在入境点对发热性疾病进行主动监测的必要性。
