Background Since its first detection in the Caribbean in late 2013, chikungunya virus
(CHIKV) has affected 51 countries in the Americas. The CHIKV epidemic in the Americas …

Viroporins like influenza A virus M2, hepatitis C virus p7, HIV-1 Vpu and picornavirus 2B
associate with host membranes, and create hydrophilic corridors, which are critical for viral …

In this paper, a nonlinear fractional‐order chikungunya disease model that incorporates
asymptomatic infectious individuals is proposed and analyzed. The main interest of this work …

The largest ever recorded epidemic of the Chikungunya virus (CHIKV) broke out in 2004

Dengue fever, chikungunya, and Zika are diseases caused by viruses transmitted by Aedes
aegypti and Aedes albopictus. In Brazil, the number of human infections is high, but few …

This paper is devoted to the study of a nonlocal reaction–diffusion model of Chikungunya
disease with periodic time delays. We establish two threshold type results on the global …
