Episode Details

Chikungunya’s back in the headlines—U.S. health officials issued a Level 2 travel warning for Costa Rica’s Guanacaste Province due to a mosquito-borne outbreak causing fever and debilitating joint pain. While no cure exists, most recover in a week, but symptoms can linger months or years. Travelers are urged to pack bug spray, wear long sleeves, and stay in screened or air-conditioned spaces—especially pregnant women near delivery. Costa Rica’s health ministry is actively fumigating and eliminating breeding sites. Not a global crisis, but a serious reminder to protect yourself before you pack your bags.
