These Diseases Love a Warmer World But Which Should We Worry
Season 4 Episode 2 | 10m 58s
Disease-carrying insects are spreading as the planet warms.
As our world gets warmer and our climate gets more extreme, the weather isn’t the only thing that’s changing and becoming more dangerous. Disease vectors are also spreading and becoming riskier to humans. In this episode of Weathered, we delve into some of the world’s biggest killers, like Malaria and Dengue, but also discuss some smaller, and creepier threats that are becoming more common.
