A recent study conducted by scientists at the University of Surrey suggests that climate change could be linked to increased prevalence of the common diarrhea illness campylobacteriosis in humans, as reported in MedicalXpress.
Campylobacteriosis is caused by bacteria from the Campylobacter genus, with the species C. jejuni and C. coli posing a significant risk to human health.
Transmission of Campylobacteriosis
The research focused on investigating the impact of elevated temperatures, longer days, and increased humidity - consequences of ongoing climate change - on the transmission of campylobacteriosis. The study's findings indicate a notable association between the warming planet and the incidence of this bacterial infection.
Dr. Giovanni Lo Iacono, Senior Lecturer in Biostatistics and Epidemiology at the University of Surrey, led the study. He emphasized the importance of understanding the environmental factors influencing the spread of diseases and highlighted the potential societal impacts of illnesses like campylobacteriosis.
Dr. Lo Iacono expressed that gaining insights into why weather conditions contribute to disease spread is a complex matter but crucial for predicting and managing outbreaks.
"We now have a detailed description of how the weather affects the disease, and the next step is to understand the why. Importantly, through our transparent and conceptually simple approach, we can now tell the risk of getting the disease when we know the recent local weather," Lo Iacono said in a statement.
The study involved analyzing data from approximately 1 million cases of campylobacteriosis in England and Wales over a 20-year period. A mathematical model was developed to compare this data with weather parameters provided by the Met Office.

Experiencing it, or reading about it?
We all need a good colon cleansing.
That would be diarrhea of their mouths!!!
Here in hot, hot Phoenix, AZ there is diarrhea everywhere - Not!
Will this cause more methane to also be released ?
More methane would cause more global warming and therefore more diarrhea which would cause more methane etc etc etc
We are going to die from all of this crap
I could have sworn it was lactose intolerance. Maybe global warming causes huge increases in loose lactose flying all over the place.
“We all need a good colon cleansing.”
BUT, that would put all those companies selling “colon cleansing and detoxification” solutions on the web out of business. Can they get federal subsidies to stay in business?
Or... It may not.
Climate Change - Is there anything it can’t do?
Another day, another story.
climate change is also responsible for the precipitous drop in human IQ’ s. it’s an undeniable fact and my research proves it beyond any reasonable doubt! the science is settled.
Insert Phil Hartman and Colon Blow cereal…
D. of the mouth. See Gore, Albert Jr. and Kerry, John F. for examples.
When the sheite hits the fan.
This says that climate change is leading to longer days??
The study was originally titled “How to easily get grant money without working hard”
After eating at Chipotle, they discovered yet another reason for Climate Change!!
#SCIENCE
Now, weather is caused by Climate Change. High temps and low temps on the same day prove it.
