SUMMARY:"As global temperatures rise, the melting of permafrost and glaciers is unleashing long-dormant microorganisms, viruses, and pathogens, posing significant risks to human health. The 2026 Nipah virus outbreak in India underscores how ecological changes, coupled with climate impacts, can exacerbate the spread of infectious diseases. Here's an in-depth breakdown of the risks and actionable strategies to mitigate them"

Misidentifying NiV-B as NiV-M may lead to underestimating mortality risk and ignoring the higher potential for human-to-human transmission associated with NiV-B""
