Predicting the effects of climate change on Schistosoma mansoni transmission in eastern Africa
BACKGROUND: Survival and fitness attributes of free-living and sporocyst schistosome life-stages and their intermediate host snails are sensitive to water temperature. Climate change may alter the geographical distribution of schistosomiasis by affecting the suitability of freshwater bodies for host...
