Seasonal Associations Between Foodborne Campylobacter Infections and Ambient Temperature in US 2010–2019

摘要

In order to effectively mitigate the effects of climate change on human health, spatiotemporal relationships between Campylobacter infections and environmental drivers have to be systematically examined to determine whether common seasonal summer peaks observed in Campylobacter infections are well aligned with peaks in raising ambient temperatures.  This study aims to evaluate the seasonal relationship between monthly ambient temperature and the monthly Campylobacter infections routinely collected by the CDC Foodborne Diseases Active Surveillance Network (FoodNet) in the United States in 2010–2019.
