Impact of Environmental Factors on the Distribution Patterns of Nephropathia Epidemica Cases in Western Europe
Crucially, our model allows for the generation of yearly maps showcasing nephropathia epidemica incidence and risk factors, aiding in public health preparedness against climate change-induced disease emergence. This work represents a significant step toward developing targeted forecasting tools for <i>Orthohantavirus puumalaense</i> outbreaks, offering valuable insights for epidemic control strategies. https://doi.org/10.1289/EHP15457.
