hey.. noe what.im scared. that chikugunya virus thingy is really disturbing my mind.
i checked for the symptoms online and this is what they say:

We have just been alerted that Chikungunya Virus Outbreak in Malaysia, spread by mosquitoes, is quite serious.More than 2,000 people are infected down south. There are claims of unreported deaths. Consult a health-careprovider or visit the nearest hospital for chikungunya fever if you showed symptoms such as fever, severe jointpains and rashes.

Four states have been hit, i.e. Johor, Malacca, N.Sembilan and Perak. The worst hit is Tangkak, Johor. Almost allelderly people (age 45 years and above) are infected with this virus. Many people who are infected seek treatmentfrom Tangkak Hospital every day. There were times beds were full, and the hospital could not warded them. Thereforethey were discharge after a half day treatment in the ward.. This epidemic outbreak has persisted for more than threemonths.


Symptoms of Chikungunya:
1. High fever
2. Rashes
3. Chronic joints pain (which will last for > 3months)



and, my kampung is located at the southern part of Johor! remember, just now i said that my tailbone feels funny..? i thought it was due to this morning 'ehem'.. but!!! i read the chikungunya symptoms and and and.... idk.

or maybe I'm just PARANOID! please tell me i am. hahahahaha.
