Detailed Summary

Non-human primates (such as macaques) could play an essential role in spreading these diseases. Researchers want to further understand the relationship between humans and these primates. They want to see how this affects how mosquito-borne viruses are spread in Southeast Asia. Objective: To describe the prevalence of Zika virus, dengue virus, and chikungunya virus in the blood of people who live close to long-tailed macaques in Thailand and Cambodia. Eligibility: Healthy people aged 18-55 who have lived or worked within approximately 10 kilometers of the Wat Amphae Phnom monkey habitat in Kampong Speu, Cambodia, for a minimum of 2 years Design: Participation will last 1 day. Participants will be screened in person through an interview. Their medical history will be reviewed. Participants will give information about themselves. This will include sex, age, and behaviors related to the spread of mosquito-borne disease. For example, they will be asked about the number of water containers at their home.
