Reference List, Comm 2

The document discusses several mosquito-borne diseases that are a major public health problem in the Philippines, including dengue, malaria, and chikungunya. Climate change is thought to make conditions more suitable for mosquito breeding. Outbreaks of these diseases have resulted in numerous cases and some deaths across different parts of the country. Government agencies monitor disease surveillance and issue reports on trends, leading causes of illness, and the relationship between climate and disease transmission.
