Journal Article
Climate change and the increased burden of dengue fever in Pakistan
2023
Overview
More than 2 million people were rendered homeless.2 The economic loss is estimated to be more than USD $30 billion, but the affected regions are facing health-care issues that have not been accounted for.3 Among the many infectious diseases spreading rapidly in flood-affected areas, dengue infection has seen an unprecedented increase. According to the National Institute of Health, Pakistan, almost 26 000 cases of dengue were confirmed from Jan 1 to Sep 27, with 74% (>19 000) of these cases being reported in September alone. [...]a population-based cohort study showed that a previous dengue virus infection was associated with a 3-fold increase in the risk of leukaemia compared with no dengue infection.10 The damage caused by climate change is not only catastrophic but also well beyond just brick and mortar.
