Pathogen-host associations and predicted range shifts of human monkeypox in response to climate change in central Africa.

Pathogen-host associations and predicted range shifts of human monkeypox in response to climate change in central Africa.

Climate change is predicted to result in changes in the geographic ranges and local prevalence of infectious diseases, either through direct effects on the pathogen, or indirectly through range shifts in vector and reservoir species. To better understand the occurrence of monkeypox virus (MPXV), an...
