Leishmaniasis and Climate Change—Case Study: Argentina by Oscar Daniel Salomón, María Gabriela Quintana, Andrea Verónica Mastrángelo, María Soledad Fernández

“…These changes of contact in turn are modulated by both direct effects on the biology and ecology of the organisms involved, as by perceptions and changes in the behavior of the human communities at risk. Therefore, from the perspective of public health and state policy, and taking into account the current nonlinear increased velocity of climate change, we concluded that discussing the uncertainties of large-scale models will have lower impact than to develop-validate mitigation strategies to be operative at local level, and compatibles with sustainable development, conservation biodiversity, and respect for cultural diversity.…”
