Chikungunya is a febrile illness that can lead to chronic, debilitating joint pain in adults and severe neurological complications in children. Introductions of this virus into Australia have steadily increased in recent years. We will estimate the risk of chikungunya transmission in Australia now and into the future, and deliver the results to public health authorities to reduce the risk of outbreaks in Australia.

基孔肯雅热是一种发热性疾病，可导致成人慢性衰弱性关节疼痛和儿童严重的神经系统并发症。近年来，这种病毒传入澳大利亚的情况稳步增加。我们将评估基孔肯雅病现在和未来在澳大利亚传播的风险，并将结果提交给公共卫生当局，以降低澳大利亚爆发的风险。
