About this title

Synopsis

Climate change is predicted to have important effects on emerging infectious diseases including the vector-borne ones.Environmental changes have a huge impact on the emergence and re-emergence of certain vector-borne infectious diseases such as Bluetongue and Rift Valley Fever. These diseases are continuing to evolve in a changing world and so do their geographical distributions. Vectors and pathogens distribution is indirectly influenced by the host range and their abundance; it is also affected directly by global warming (temperature raise between 1OC- 3.5 OC) and different climatic moisture availability, rainfall and drought periods.The world needs to find ways of coping with climate change, and diseases emergence threats and this by creating preparedness pathways and tools to elaborate EIDs frameworks and surveillance strategies.
