Climate extremes, average conditions and temperature variability as drivers of dengue epidemics in a temperate city of Argentina
The analysis of long-term climate data reveals that rising temperatures and some associated extremes are significant factors driving this trend, with implications for public health preparedness and response. We emphasize the necessity for enhancing monitoring systems, encompassing epidemiological, climatic, and vector variables, to mitigate the impacts of future epidemics.
