A study published in Nature shows that climate change is causing malaria hotspots to shift from West and Central Africa to eastern and southern regions. Rising temperatures are creating a more favorable environment for malaria transmission in the east and south, while making it less suitable in the west and center. Between 1901 and 2014, climate change likely led to a net increase in malaria transmission of 0.5% in countries south of the Sahara. Despite this, efforts to combat malaria remain crucial.
