Climate change increases dengue risk in Keralam; cases may rise by 20% by 2040, says study

A study found that climate change is increasing dengue risk in Kerala, with cases projected to rise by about 20% by 2040. It identified rainfall, humidity and the El Niño-Southern Oscillation (ENSO) as the key drivers of transmission, noting that monsoon active and break phases influence localised mosquito breeding.
