[Focus on and response to climate-sensitive diseases].

With the current climate change characterized by global warming becoming more severe, the increasing frequency of extreme weather events such as heatwaves, cold waves, sandstorms, floods, and droughts caused by climate change has posed serious threats to human health. Climate change is not only a major public health challenge in China, but also a focus problem in global. This article focuses on climate-sensitive diseases and summarizes and reviews the latest scientific facts and progress on how climate change impacts infectious diseases and chronic non-communicable diseases. It further proposes measures and strategies for addressing climate-sensitive diseases with public health in center, providing ideas and suggestions for scientifically addressing climate-sensitive diseases in the future.

Abstract

With the current climate change characterized by global warming becoming more severe, the increasing frequency of extreme weather events such as heatwaves, cold waves, sandstorms, floods, and droughts caused by climate change has posed serious threats to human health. Climate change is not only a major public health challenge in China, but also a focus problem in global. This article focuses on climate-sensitive diseases and summarizes and reviews the latest scientific facts and progress on how climate change impacts infectious diseases and chronic non-communicable diseases. It further proposes measures and strategies for addressing climate-sensitive diseases with public health in center, providing ideas and suggestions for scientifically addressing climate-sensitive diseases in the future.
