Popis: To the Editor: Arboviral infections, such as chikungunya and dengue, are endemic to South Asia. Concurrent infection of these viral infections with another vector-borne parasitic disease, malaria, is uncommon in India and would pose a challenge for medical diagnosis because of overlapping clinical symptoms. We present a case of multiple co-infections in a young man attending college in India after his return from Nigeria, a region endemic for chikungunya, dengue, and malaria.
