Vector-Borne Disease Awareness: Mosquitoes, Ticks and Other Pests (Spanish)

What are Vector-Borne Diseases?

Diseases that are transmitted from animals to humans through blood-sucking arthropods (invertebrate animals), such as mosquitoes, ticks, and fleas. Any free-living agent that carries and transmits infectious microbes or diseases is known as Vector Disease. Some examples of vector-borne diseases are Dengue, Lyme disease, West Nile disease, malaria, and many more.

Why everyone should become aware of Vector-Borne Diseases?

Vector-borne diseases are the most rapidly spreading diseases in the world. These diseases are mostly transmitted by mosquitoes. Millions of people die every year because of a lack of awareness of Vector-Borne Diseases. When mosquitoes or other types of arthropods sting or bite any part of a person's body, that person might just get a little annoyed by it and then ignore it later. But that person is unaware of what type of disease or bacteria that mosquito carries and maybe it might have been transmitted in his body, which can be the cause of his illness or even his death.
