Europe must brace for a rise in mosquito borne infections. That was the warning issued by the EU’s health commissioner earlier this month, pointing to the growing risk of tropical illnesses spreading due to global warming. Here in France, record cases of dengue fever have been reported since the start of 2024. Most of them are people who have traveled to French overseas territories. Authorities warn this could result in people getting infected on French soil, in a wave of native cases. Our team at Down to Earth has this report.
