Climate Change Is Increasing the Risk of the Reemergence of Malaria in Romania
The climatic modifications lead to global warming; favouring the risk of the appearance and development of diseases are considered until now tropical diseases. Another important factor is the workers’ immigration, the economic crisis favouring the passive transmission of new species of culicidae fro...
