What Are the Epidemiological Factors Influencing Mosquito-Borne Diseases?
Several factors influence the epidemiology of mosquito-borne diseases:
1. Environmental Conditions: Temperature, humidity, and rainfall affect mosquito breeding and survival rates. 2. Human Behavior: Activities such as travel, urbanization, and deforestation can increase exposure to mosquitoes. 3. Vector Control Measures: Use of insecticides, bed nets, and elimination of breeding sites can reduce disease transmission. 4. Host Immunity: Population immunity levels can impact the spread and severity of diseases.
