Narrative review reveals rising vector-borne disease transmission across vulnerable populations under climate change, highlighting the need for adaptive surveillance and vector control.

Key Points

Examine the mechanisms connecting climate change to altered vector biology and transmission dynamics, while identifying effective public health prevention and adaptation strategies.
Narrative review synthesizing evidence on the impact of shifting temperatures, precipitation patterns, and extreme weather events on vector biology and pathogen development.
Evaluated transmission dynamics and projected epidemiological trends for major mosquito-borne pathogens, specifically malaria, dengue, chikungunya, and Zika virus.
Assessed public health interventions, surveillance infrastructures, and climate-adaptive health policies tailored to vulnerable and resource-limited populations.
Shifting climatic variables expand the geographic boundaries and seasonal duration of vector activity, driving disease emergence into previously unaffected regions.
Temperature and rainfall extremes accelerate vector life cycles and pathogen incubation rates, escalating risk in socioeconomically vulnerable regions.
Resilient mitigation demands multifaceted interventions combining local vector control, active surveillance systems, and community-driven, climate-adaptive policies.
