Join us for a focused exploration of a critical but often under-quantified and under-prepared challenge in public health. This half-day event, part of CAFE’s extreme weather series, examines the intersection between extreme weather events and infectious disease risk and vulnerability.

This event will investigate how extreme weather events such as floods, hurricanes, droughts, heavy precipitation, and wildfires create conditions that may heighten infectious disease risk across populations. This event carves out a unique niche by concentrating specifically on how environmental extremes interact with and amplify disease threats.
