Globale Erwärmung: Wegbereiter für tropische Infektionskrankheiten in Deutschland?

摘要: Since 1850, the CO (2) content of atmosphere has increased from 280 to 360 ppm, and average surface temperature risen 14.6 15.3 C . A further increase between 1.8 4.0 is expected for 21st century. Temperate cold climate zones are affected predominantly, but tropical regions not spared. At same time, world wide effects "El Nino Southern Oscillation" amplified. Global warming enhances growth pathogens (malarial plasmodia, leishmania, yellow fever virus, dengue West Nile Vibrio cholerae) vectors (anopheles, aedes, culex, phlebotomus mosquitos; hard ticks). may lead emergence diseases which at present endemic in Germany, like fever, Dengue or Leishmaniases, enhanced transmission borreliosis tick-borne encephalitis. Malaria cholera, contrast, influenced more strongly by socioeconomic factors. Improved surveillance intensified research on relationship change infectious needed.
