Distribution of initial severity scores calculated with the first factorial axis of the multiple correspondence analysis according to self-perceived recovery status of CHIKV + patients in 2008 (N = 85), cohort of French Gendarmes (2006–2008)

	Recovered	Non-recovered	p*
	N = 48 (56.47%)	N = 37 (43.5%)
Median overall severity score (IQ)	55.6 (0–78.7)	70.7 (49.1-79.6)	0.098
Median acute stage severity score (IQ)	58.0 (0–78.5)	67.0 (44.5-79.0)	0.202
Median early chronic stage severity score (IQ)	58.5 (0–72.6)	72.6 (58.5-100)	0.006

IQ: interquartile 25%-75%.
