Papers on how socio-economic factors magnify the impact of mosquito-borne diseases.
On Wed. we will continue to talk about Sponges, but we will also discuss the question: Why do mosquito borne diseases have a disproportionate impact on economically disadvantaged and marginalized people? Before Wed. please read any one of the papers posted on Moodle about how socio-environmental differences can magnify the impact of diseases spread by mosquitos. Don’t worry about reading the whole papers, just focus on what factors affect the disease impact.
