Explanation:

We have global warming to thank for an increase in the rate of bug bite related infections. Bugs thrive in warmer climates, including ticks that carry the potentially fatal Lyme disease and perhaps even flu bugs. As winters shorten, ticks are showing up earlier each year and leaving later. As a result, the number of cases of Lyme disease has doubled in recent years.

Flu and Cold Epidemic Highest in a Decade

And not just insect bugs but also sick bugs are on the rise. With January 2013 seeing the highest rate of flu doctor visits in more than ten years, an epidemic has been declared in 44 states so far. The symptoms are far worse than in past years and the flu shots did not seem to cover the strain that is affecting most flu sufferers. In fact, even many of those who are not sick with the flu are still suffering from the worst cold on record in years. And to make matters worse, the peak of flu season is not even here yet, based on past years’ peaks in early February.

Warmer Winter Might Be Cause for Extreme Cold & Flu

One might surmise that given the warmer temperatures we have experienced this winter season, perhaps less germs have died. If so, perhaps more germs were able to breed to create this new extreme strain of flu and cold that has people suffering for weeks on end this year. Cold and flu symptoms that normally last 5-7 days are lasting up to two weeks and beyond, even in people who are otherwise considered healthy. We can hope that a deep freeze and more quarantine from one another might help to reduce the extremely active nature of this sick bug.

Due to the rise in temperatures, mosquitos activity increases and they move and spread to areas.

Explanation:

  • The warm and moist climates are breeding grounds for mosquitoes these give rise to many diseases.  
  • The mosquito is generally found in summer and rainy season as due to the presence of heat and humidity cooling does not take place and leads to attraction of mosquito in search of food.
  • This creates problems of malaria, dengue fever, and other mosquito-borne diseases.  
  • They have an indirect impact on physical and mental health, every year millions of people are killed by mosquito bite.
