Drivers include unplanned urbanisation, climate change, and increased global travel and trade, which enhance vector suitability and outbreak dynamics.

Approximately 70% of the world’s population is at risk of infection from dengue, chikungunya, Zika, and yellow fever viruses, 1 with the burden rising sharply in recent years. This increasing risk is driven by a confluence offactors, including rapid and often unplanned urbanisation, climate change, and increasing interconnectedness through global travel and trade.  \nThe expansion of urban environments has created ideal breeding grounds for Aedes mosquitoes, while climate change is extending transmission seasons, expanding vector ranges, decreasing vector extrinsic incubation periods, and increasing the frequency and magnitude ofarboviral outbreaks. By 2050, it is projected that 65% of the global population will reside in urban areas, further amplifying the risk of arboviral transmission.2 The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Ch","cbCaiirncnDzunHW","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaiirncnDzunHW","pdf",31959,"English","# Global threat and risk drivers\n## Urbanisation, climate change, and connectivity\n## Historical outbreaks and consequences\n## Recent dengue and emerging arboviruses","[{\"question\":\"Which viruses and vectors are highlighted as major arboviral threats?\",\"answer\":\"The text focuses on arboviruses transmitted by Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus, including dengue, chikungunya, Zika, and yellow fever.\"},{\"question\":\"What factors are said to be increasing the risk of arboviral transmission?\",\"answer\":\"Increasing urbanisation, climate change, and greater interconnectedness through global travel and trade are identified as key drivers.\"},{\"question\":\"What evidence is provided from recent outbreaks to show the scale of dengue impact?\",\"answer\":\"The text reports a record 14 million dengue cases in 2024 across 134 countries and territories, including over 52,000 severe cases and more than 10,000 deaths.\"}]","Strengthening global preparedness and response to arboviral disease threats - a call to action - Call to Action | PDF",1790595234,13]
