Leishmaniasis and Climate Change—Case Study: Argentina

摘要: Vector-borne diseases closely associated with the environment, such as leishmaniases, have been a usual argument about deleterious impact of climate change on public health. From biological point view interaction different variables has and even conflicting effects survival vectors probability transmission pathogens. The results ecoepidemiology leishmaniasis in Argentina related to at scales space time are presented. These studies showed that changes due or increase frequency intensity climatic instability were expressed through vector-human reservoir effective contacts. contact turn modulated by both direct biology ecology organisms involved, perceptions behavior human communities risk. Therefore, from perspective health state policy, taking into account current nonlinear increased velocity change, we concluded discussing uncertainties large-scale models will lower than develop-validate mitigation strategies be operative local level, compatibles sustainable development, conservation biodiversity, respect for cultural diversity.
