Abstract

Climate change is occurring on a worldwide scale. Human wellbeing, beach front networks, food creation, water supplies, and air quality are as of now being influenced by this change. Over 17% of all infectious sicknesses are vector-borne. There is growing information regarding how vector-borne diseases are impacted by climate change. In request to address the ramifications of climate change on VBDs in India through this paper, we assembled optional information in September 2022 from books, studies, diaries, and distributed articles on this significant subject. This exposition will give a speedy outline of how the main vector-borne diseases in India are evolving epidemiologically.
