“…They added this must increase the awareness and preparedness of the different countries for Aedes borne diseases. Morsy (2018) reported that the increased air travel and breakdown of vector control measures have also contributed greatly to global burden of dengue and DH fevers. He added that without vectors effectively control or a cost effective vaccine developed, dengue virus can be expected to continue to escalate.…”

Spreading of dengue fever after globalization presents an emerging worldwide threating especially in tropical and subtropical regions. Co-infections of Dengue virus (DENV), Zika, virus (ZIKV) and Chikkungunya virus (CHIKV) are Aedes mosquito-borne diseases reported in some countries. Climate change is likely to increase global outbreaks incidence of Aedes-borne arboviruses has been more frequent and more intense in the recent years. Unfortunately, current evidence suggests that climatic changes can be partially driving recent mosquito-borne diseases outbreaks worldwide. Besides, the global climatic change already made the conditions more suitable for risk spreading of certain zoonotic vector-borne diseases to non-endemic countries. The areas with risk of dengue are changing.

“…Ae. aegypti is generally considered the main vector of zoonotic arboviruses; Yellow fever (CDC, 2010), Dengue fever (El-Bahnasawy et al, 2011), Chikungunya viruses (Mostafa et al, 2002) and Zika fever (Morsy, 2018). Infectious and vector-borne diseases epidemiology may be occurred due to climate change (WHO, 2003).…”

Zika, dengue fever, and chikungunya are arboviral infections that are spread by Aedes aegypti (Diptera: Culicidae). Climate change is one of the most important factors associated with the medically important insect pests such as mosquitoes (Culicidae). Diseases spread by mosquitoes are growing because of changes in global temperature; they will spread to new regions. The objective of the current study was to study potential geographic distribution habitats of Ae. aegypti in the world under both current and future climate conditions. The scenarios that used were BCC-CSM2-MR and IPSL-CM6A-LR with two Shared Socioeconomic Pathways (SSPs) for each of the GCMs: SSP126 and SSP585. The results revealed that Altitude, Temperature Seasonality (standard deviation *100) (bio4) and Annual Precipitation (bio12) were the most important environmental variables that affected the distribution of Ae. aegypti.

Dengue fever is infectious disease caused by dengue virus. Climate change, especially warming temperature is associated with the spread of Aedes aegypti which is the main vector for dengue virus. Antibiotics for dengue infection are used to prevent secondary infection. Thus, hospitalized patients treated with antibiotics are suspected to be associated with days reduction of hospitalization. It is important to monitor the patients’ temperature as it becomes the sign of worseness or recovery. This study aims to determine whether there is relationship between antibiotic treatment with length of stay and daily temperature of child patients infected by dengue. The study was conducted at UNS Hospital Indonesia. A total data of 180 children hospitalized with dengue infection since 2019 to 2020 were analyzed. Confirmation to parents was done when needed. Data were analyzed using Mann-Whitney and Fisher’s test. There was insignificant relationship between antibiotics treatment with length of stay (p-value = 0.48) and daily temperature (p-value = 0.078) of child patients infected by dengue at UNS Hospital. There was no significant relationship between antibiotic treatment with length of stay and daily temperature fluctuation. Further study to investigate other factors which affect the length of stay and daily temperature fluctuation is needed.
