Climate change expected to reshape malaria risk worldwide
Original: What impact will climate change have on malaria?
Attention is turning to how a warming climate will affect malaria transmission. Rising temperatures and shifting rainfall patterns are expected to expand the areas where mosquitoes can survive, putting new populations at risk, while some currently endemic regions may see transmission decline. Experts are weighing where the disease burden will shift and how health systems should prepare for changing exposure.
Why now: Growing concern that global warming is altering the geographic spread of mosquito-borne diseases.
