If you guys think West Nile is something to sneeze at you are wrong. My father nearly died last summer and still hasn’t recovered fully from the devestating effects of this. Children and adults are particularly vulnerable. This is only ONE of many diseases which climate change will help pass from animal to humans in future due to the expanding geographical boundaries created by climate change.
West Nile, sars, avian flu, malaria were all supposed to be rampant, world wide pandemics by now.
There isn’t any evidence to suggest that there is any more threat from these diseases than at any other time in the Earth history.
If anything, history will show that it’s during the times of cold that diseases are more likely to cause pandemics.
The scare tactics that global warming is going to spread more illnesses is just another one of those things that the believers state to scare you into accepting their beliefs. This will never happen.
