Researchers have dismissed suggestions that rising temperatures associated with global warming could lead to an increase in the number of malaria cases. Previous models have predicted that the optimal temperature for transmission is 31 degree centigrade, but the new model suggests this is 25 degrees and that malaria transmission would drastically decrease above 28 degrees.

Global Warming Will Not Result in Spread of Malaria
Researchers have dismissed suggestions that rising temperatures associated with global warming could lead to an increase in the number of malaria cases. Previous models have predicted that the optimal temperature for transmission is 31 degree centigrade, but the new model suggests this is 25 degrees and that malaria transmission would drastically decrease above 28 degrees.
