Zusammenfassung: | Typhoid fever is caused by Salmonella enterica serotype Typhi (Salmonella Typhi). Syndromes in patients vary from asymptomatic carriers to severe or death outcomes, which are frequently reported in African and Southeast Asian countries. It is one of the most common waterborne transmission agents, whose transmission is likely impacted by climate change. Here, we claimed the evidence and consequences of climate‐related foodborne and waterborne diseases have increased and provided possible mitigations against Typhoidal Salmonella dissemination.
Given the increasing threats to public health, here we elaborate on the potential effects of climate change on the dissemination of Salmonella enterica serovar Typhi and highlight variable consequences. The future endeavors should be consistent with the guidelines set forth by the WHO. |
