  2. 3/3 Second, transmission thresholds are nonlinearly dependent on both vertebrate host availability and temperature, adding a new dimension to our understanding of disease spread dynamics.

    Our work provides new insights into the factors influencing mosquito-borne diseases, emphasizing the need for integrated approaches in epidemiological modeling. Check out the full paper for a deep dive into our methods and results! #Epidemiology #PublicHealth #VectorBorneDiseases
