abstract = {The COVID-19 outbreak is an unprecedented global public health challenge. It has a myriad of clinical presentations including fever, cough, vomiting, and diarrhea. Here, we present a unique case of COVID-19, with an atypical presentation of arthralgias and false-positive results for the chikungunya virus. By highlighting the importance of this rare association, we want physicians to be vigilant in the time of this pandemic and to have a high suspicion for this novel disease.},
