Exploring the association of weather variability on Campylobacter - A systematic review

DISCUSSION: This review explores what is known about the influence of weather events on Campylobacter and identifies previously underreported negative associations between relative humidity and sunshine on Campylobacter infections. Future research should explore pathogen-specific estimates of risk, which can be used to influence public health strategies, improve source attribution and causal pathways, and project disease burden due to climate change.PMID:38582433 | DOI:10.1016/j.envres.2024.118796
