Interventions can shift the thermal optimum for parasitic disease transmission
Temperature influences the transmission of many diseases, but the effects of temperature variability on the transmission of parasitic diseases are poorly understood. A new study investigated the influence of water temperature on the transmission risk for schistosomiasis, a disease that affects over 200 million people annually. Schistosomiasis is caused by parasitic worms which develop in […]
