Study finds global warming wilts malaria: ‘Transmission of infectious parasites slows with rising temperatures’
'A study out today in Biology Letters finds that warmer temperatures seem to slow transmission of malaria-causing parasites, by reducing their infectiousness...the researchers, at PSU expect the pattern to apply to human malaria and possibly to other mosquito-borne diseases such as dengue fever and West Nile virus...As temperature rises, parasites do develop faster, but fewer of them become infectious'
