What are the Risk Factors Associated with Aedes Mosquito-borne Diseases?
Several risk factors contribute to the spread of Aedes mosquito-borne diseases, including:
Climate change: Warmer temperatures and increased rainfall can expand the habitats suitable for Aedes mosquitoes. Urbanization: Rapid urban growth often leads to poor sanitation and water storage practices, creating breeding grounds for mosquitoes. Global travel: Increased international travel can facilitate the spread of mosquito-borne viruses to new regions. Vector control efforts: Ineffective or inadequate mosquito control measures can lead to increased transmission.
