Tropical Diseases

Tropical diseases encompass all diseases that occur solely, or principally, in the tropics.  Insects such as mosquitoes and flies are by far the most common disease carrier, or vector. These insects may carry a parasite, bacterium or virus that is infectious to humans and animals. The most prevalent infectious diseases that thrive in hot, humid conditions are malaria, leishmaniasis, schistosomiasis, onchocerciasis, lymphatic filariasis, Chagas disease, African trypanosomiasis, and dengue.
