内容説明
There is international recognition of the substantial threat that global warming presents to human health and of the challenges that it poses to health service delivery. The World health organization recognized the health significance of global warming in selecting the topic "protecting health from climate change" for the World Health day, April 7, 2008. It estimated that global warming and climate change-related natural disasters account for over 60,000 deaths globally per year. Along with injury and death from fire, floods, and storms, global warming affects human health through effects on food security and safety, vector-borne, rodent-borne and other infectious diseases, the emergence and re-emergence of an array of infectious diseases, thermal stress, neurological disease and psychiatric illnesses, among other aspects of ill-health. However, the surgical research community is largely silent on the topic of the surgical implications of global warming.
