This study conducted by M. Santos-Vega, P. P. Martinez, K. G. Vaishnav, V. Kohli, V. Desai, M. J. Bouma, and M. Pascual reveals a significant link between relative humidity and urban malaria variability in Indian cities. With insights from years of surveillance data and advanced modeling, the research underscores the critical impact of RH on malaria spread and the challenges posed by climate change on malaria control efforts.
