ChikV, the abbreviation for Chikungunya Virus, is an arbovirus that replicates exclusively in the presence of a single RNA strand. Patients with suspected or confirmed ChikV infection are tested for the presence of Chikungunya antibody IgM. Many African, Asia, and Caribbean people have contracted the virus. Chikungunya is an interesting term because it comes from a southeast African ethnic group called the Makonde. Extreme discomfort in the joints is experienced by those infected with ChikV. Mosquito bites are the primary means of viral transmission. A negative chikungunya igm test in Delhi shows a lack of ChikV virus exposure.

Positive chikungunya igm antibody in Delhi results indicate possible ChikV virus exposure. Recent or previous infection is shown
