Influence of climatic changes on health and diseases

How climatic changes influence health and diseases:
Agriculture (food)		Water resources		Tornados and wind	Increase temperature and humidity					Mass migration of
					Expansion of insect niche		Rodent niche		Direct effects on Human health
Food scanty	Foodborne diseases	Water scanty	Rains and floods	Airborne diseases	Insect/parasites	Insect-borne diseases	Rodents	Rodent-borne diseases	Physical and psychological diseases	Human	Animals
- Diseases caused by consumption of rotted food - Nutritional deficiency diseases	- Bacteria (e.g. Salmonellosis) - Viral (e.g. Hepatitis A)	-Diseases due to consumption of contaminated water (e.g. cholera, hepatitis A, giardiasis and cryptosporidiosis) -Dehydration and famines	- Fungal diseases and mycotoxins - Water-borne diseases - Spore-borne diseases (washed away via floods e.g. Anthrax). - Snail-borne diseases (e.g. trematodes)	-In human (e.g. wind pox) and animals (e.g. FMD).	- Such as mosquitoes Ticks Flies Flea	- Including bacterial, viral and parasitic diseases as West Nile fever Plague Malaria and leishmaniasis	- The spread of rats and mice which has health and economic impacts	- Hanta disease -Leptospirosis	- Physical diseases (e.g. sun struck, respirator asthma and heart diseases) - Psychological diseases and stress-borne diseases	Because of wars and famines which spread diseases in addition to its economic impacts	Due to water and food scanty which spread diseases to new areas
