For the others, it is confirmed. Five people in all were therefore infected with the virus transmitted by the Tiger mosquito, between the end of June and July 15.
“Fortunately, we are better. We recovered from this big fatigue that fell on us when we were sick. Even if my husband has a little steep hand. In terms of joints, it is a little numb. For some, chikungunya, it may not be much. But for more fragile people like us, with rheumatism, it’s a bit heavy, ”says Geneviève Rue.
In the vicinity, we also keep some sequelae. In Chantal Bourdin’s house, already declared positive to the virus, his sister and Bernadette received the results of the laboratory. ” Positive. So there are three of us in the house, but we suspected it. My sister still has problems on the fingers of the hand ”.
Demoustication operations are indeed finished. “They came to remove mosquito traps on Friday afternoon, shortly before spraying, which lasted until 1 a.m.,” says Geneviève Street. The mobilized agents worked in the streets but also in the gardens of the three houses affected by the home. “Each shrub, each plant, has been treated. It makes some to complain about the toxicity of the product, but I prefer that my garden was treated rather than taking the risk that people who come here catch the virus. ”
Chantal Bourdin is of the same opinion. “They did a good job. We can eat outside now. It’s a shame, it’s too hot, ”she smiles.
