Sources: https://learningenglish.voanews.com/a/climate-change-may-affect-dengue-and-malaria-disease-risks/5583044.html Summary: The future may mean more dengue and less malaria in parts of Africa if the planet continues to warm, a new study says. Humans contract the diseases through mosquito bites. The Anopheles mosquito carries a parasite that causes malaria. Dengue is caused by a virus carried by the Aedes mosquito. These two mosquitos also do best in different climates. Malaria mosquitos thrive in temperatures of about 25 degrees Celsius. Dengue mosquitos like it hotter, by about 4 degrees. Erin Mordecai is assistant professor of biology at Stanford University in California. Mordecai said climate change may weaken the spread of malaria but increase the spread of dengue. Combining mosquito temperature data, population numbers, and climate expectations, the researchers predicted malaria and dengue risks for Africa. The dengue mosquito is expected to spread across sub-Saharan Africa fully by 2080. And a resulting rise in dengue cases is not the only worry. Aedes mosquitoes can also carry chikungunya, Zika and yellow fever viruses. At the same time, the researchers say, malaria risk will drop as Anopheles mosquitos move further south and into mountainous areas seeking cooler temperatures.
