Here is what we know:

Climate change poses the most significant threat to human health today. Extreme weather events of increasing frequency and intensity are placing additional pressure on fragile health systems that already struggle to meet the challenge presented by neglected tropical diseases. Disease vectors are expanding into new geographies, straining surveillance systems and altering where and how often people come into contact with neglected tropical diseases. If the threat posed by climate change is not addressed, as a global health community we risk undoing all of the great progress made against neglected tropical diseases in recent years.
