Core Tip	Changing core temperatures and increased incidence of climate change catastrophes have led to certain infectious disease outbreaks across the globe. As the climate continues to change and leads to the destruction of local biodiversity, the consequent spread of vectors is predicted to lead to further escalation in vector-borne diseases. The global community has also expressed significant concern regarding the spread of known lethal pathogens such as malaria and the West Nile viruses. Development and implementation of National Health Adaptation Plans is recommended to predict and tackle these emerging threats effectively.
