Description
Rory Gibb and co-authors study why dengue is spreading in Vietnam in a 2023 paper. The fever, carried by mosquitoes, is growing worldwide, but local mixes of climate and social factors shape where it takes hold.
The team used twenty three years of district level case data, from a period of fast social change. Town infrastructure, such as sanitation and water supply, predicted where cases clustered. Human movement mattered more in the cooler north than in the warm south. Heat was the strongest driver overall, and warming since 1950 has widened the risk zone. Rain effects were mixed: both flood and drought raised risk, while better water supply softened the drought effect.
