oster for RAFT TechTalk Event. 

Text reads: 

Mosquito-borne arboviruses like dengue and chikungunya are steadily increasing on a global scale, and will continue to do so as urbanisation, global warming, and increased international mobility favour the spread and increase of the Aedes vector mosquitoes. Obscured by the greater priority of malaria, arboviruses nevertheless already exceed the number of annual malaria infections. In this webinar we learn about the close links between Aedes biology and human habitations, and the need for multi-sectoral and global coordination to curb the unabating spread of these diseases. Our panel of experts from Africa, Asia and the World Health Organization will share insights and respond to audience questions.
