Impact of climate change on infectious disease outbreak-preparedness and response

Image

Climate change is driving changes that are harder to notice, including small drifts in wildlife population and habitats that are altering infectious disease transmission. While the links between climate change and infectious diseases are complex and not yet fully understood, increased transmission of zoonotic diseases are already recorded and reported like Lassa fever and monkeypox in West Africa, Ebola virus disease in the Democratic Republic of Congo and others.

Governments must invest more in understanding the science, in disease prevention, and in emergency preparedness. We must develop functioning surveillance systems and ensure that the people on the frontlines have the resources and capacity they need. Planning and vulnerability assessments must be done, and preparations for the future must be made. Clearly, it is time we invest in research to better understand climate change and infectious disease and develop responsible policies.

Integrative Journal of Global Health aims to disseminate knowledge and promote discussion through the publication of peer-reviewed, high quality papers on such research. The open access journal is published by Insight Medical Publishing (iMedPub) which is a comprehensive destination for the recent and the latest discoveries in the science, technology, medicine, and engineering. Established in 2005, iMedPub has been serving the scientific community relentlessly with its open access platform for publishing the research outcome to reach the global scientific fraternity.

The scope of the Journal include a wide range of subjects related to global health, climate change, environmental studies, food and clinical sciences, reaching out to analytical scientists worldwide. The Journal emphasizes on high-level research education and development. Original research articles, reviews, short communications, and letters to the editors in the field of health are accepted. Every effort is made to have a quality, rigorous, critical peer-review and rapid publishing process.

Realizing the importance of this field, OMICS Group is organizing prestigious conferences worldwide. The Conferences will provide a great scope for interaction of professionals including medical experts, top-level clinicians and research scientists from around the globe, on a single platform.
