A changing climate is aggravating the negative health impacts of several infectious diseases by broadening the range of vectors that spreads them. It also lengthens the season in which mosquitos reproduce and transmit the disease, thereby increasing the number of people at risk.<\/div>\n<div align=\"justify\"><\/div>\n<div align=\"justify\">Jan Semenza, Head of the Health Determinants Programme, European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control (ECDC) will give an overview of the most concerning climate sensitive infectious diseases in Europe. He will also touch upon the health intervention that ECDC has already put in place to minimise the impacts on people\u2019s health. Finally, he will also discuss the short- and long-term goals of the recently established European Climate and Health Observatory, which primary aim is to \u201cto support Europe in preparing for and adapting to the impacts of climate change on human health\u201d.<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Join Seb Dance, Public Policy Projects Deputy Chair for Environment, Climate and Health, and\u00a0Jan Semenza, Head of the Health Determinants Programme, European Centre for Disease Prevention and Control, to discuss the short- and long-term goals of the recently established European Climate and health Observatory as well as Jan\u2019s work at ECDC on infectious diseases, climate [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":2085,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","template":"","acf":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/integratedcarejournal.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/eventbrite_events\/2080"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/integratedcarejournal.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/eventbrite_events"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/integratedcarejournal.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/eventbrite_events"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/integratedcarejournal.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/integratedcarejournal.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2080"}],"version-history":[{"count":5,"href":"https:\/\/integratedcarejournal.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/eventbrite_events\/2080\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2086,"href":"https:\/\/integratedcarejournal.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/eventbrite_events\/2080\/revisions\/2086"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/integratedcarejournal.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/2085"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/integratedcarejournal.com\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2080"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
