This study is testing over 5,300 people in about 10 Brazilian towns to see how many have already been exposed to the chikungunya virus before a new vaccine (VLA1553) is offered. Participants are aged 2 and older and live in selected households. The goal is to understand how past infection might affect people's decision to get vaccinated and how the vaccine works in real-world conditions.
