Italian health authorities report more than 650 infections so far this year, roughly half of all European cases, and describe evidence that rising temperatures are widening the geographic and seasonal spread of the virus.
“Higher temperatures linked to climate change help mosquitoes reproduce and extend the transmission season, increasing the chances that infected mosquitoes will spread the virus to people”
