Why the growth of arboviral diseases necessitates a new generation of global risk maps and future projections
Oliver J. Brady et al.
PLoS Comput Biol 21(4): e1012771
Global risk maps are an important tool for assessing the global threat of mosquito and tick-transmitted arboviral diseases. Public health officials increasingly rely on risk maps to understand the drivers of transmission, forecast spread, identify gaps in surveillance, estimate disease burden, and target and evaluate the impact of interventions.

Climate change and pandemics: a call for action
Climate change is expected to impact macroecological processes and adaptive responses of wildlife, thereby increasing cross-species viral transmission and elevating
IDAlert at the Thessaloniki International Fair
Thanks to the collaboration of our partner, icddr,b, the Mosquito Alert app has now been introduced in Bangladesh and adapted for local use in Bangla. This deployment empowers communities in Bangladesh to directly participate in mosquito surveillance and control efforts, contributing to early warning systems and targeted interventions.
Turning mosquito troubles into health protection data: Mosquito Alert App launch in Bangladesh
Thanks to the collaboration of our partner, icddr,b, the Mosquito Alert app has now been introduced in Bangladesh and adapted for local use in Bangla. This deployment empowers communities in Bangladesh to directly participate in mosquito surveillance and control efforts, contributing to early warning systems and targeted interventions.
Discover our climate change and health indicators for kids and teens
In 2023, record-breaking global temperatures highlighted the urgent need for climate action to prevent worsening climate-related health impacts. Europe, warming at twice the global average rate, faces significant health threats and unnecessary loss of life. The Lancet Countdown in Europe, established in 2021, aims to drive rapid health-responsive climate actions. Its 2022 report tracked progress using 33 indicators across five domains.
Identifying the climate sensitivity of infectious diseases: a conceptual framework
Alcayna, Tilly et al.
The Lancet Planetary Health, Volume 0, Issue 0, 101291
Infectious diseases pose a substantial threat to public health, affecting billions and straining health-care systems worldwide. There is growing concern over how anthropogenic climate change might aggravate the global burden of climate-sensitive infectious diseases. In this Personal View, we propose a framework for understanding what makes an infectious disease climate-sensitive.
