Journal ArticleDOI
Global expansion and redistribution of Aedes-borne virus transmission risk with climate change.
TL;DR: While climate change will lead to increased net and new exposures to Aedes-borne viruses, the most extreme increases in Ae.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: In this paper , the authors simulate potential hotspots of future viral sharing, using a phylogeographical model of the mammal-virus network, and projections of geographical range shifts for 3,139 mammal species under climate-change and land-use scenarios for the year 2070.
Journal ArticleDOI

TL;DR: The COVID-19 pandemic will be an unprecedented test of governments' ability to manage compound risks, as climate hazards disrupt outbreak response around the world as discussed by the authors, but climate adaptation also needs a long-term strategy for pandemic preparedness.
Journal ArticleDOI
Parasite biodiversity faces extinction and redistribution in a changing climate

Cumming,Jorge Doña,Nyeema C. Harris,Roger Jovani,Sergey Mironov,Oliver Muellerklein,Heather C. Proctor,Wayne M. Getz,Wayne M. Getz +17 more
TL;DR: The most comprehensive spatially explicit data set available for parasites, projected range shifts in a changing climate, and estimated extinction rates for eight major parasite clades is compiled, finding that ectoparasites (especially ticks) fare disproportionately worse than endopar asites.
Journal ArticleDOI
Misconceptions about weather and seasonality must not misguide COVID-19 response.
TL;DR: Weather may marginally affect COVID-19 dynamics, but misconceptions about the way that climate and weather drive exposure and transmission have adversely shaped risk perceptions for both policymakers and citizens.
