Lymphatic filariasis (LF) is a parasitic infection that is spread by mosquitos infected with worm larvae. Several factors will affect the global prevalence of LF in the future. A growing body of evidence suggests that climate change will influence the spread of parasitic diseases and their vectors. Lymphatic filariasis is the leading cause of permanent

Wuchereria bancrofti, Brugia malayi, and B. timori are mosquito-borne nematode parasites that are important causes of morbidity, disability, and social stigma in tropical and subtropical countries. Bancroftian filariasis due to W. bancrofti, which has no animal reservoir, accounts for 90% of human infections worldwide.

Abstract The cutaneous filariae are transmitted by biting insects. Some, such as Onchocerca volvulus, are transmitted by Simulium flies and can cause debilitating conditions such as visual impairment and disfiguring skin conditions. The Mansonella infections are transmitted either by Simulium flies or biting midges (genus Culicoides ...
