Abstract

The issue of combating infectious diseases includes immunization strategies, preparedness for climate change and health threats of new infections. The nature of infectious diseases is constantly evolving.

At present, Europe recorded hundreds of cases of yellow fever, dengue and chikungunya, including fatal cases. As a result of this phenomenon in Europe are rising fears of autochthonous arboviruses transmissions, specifically with southern Europe, where the climatic conditions are very suitable for colonization by exotic invasive species of mosquitoes.

At this moment already we are serious not only medical but also an ecological problem.
