The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change has reported that the prevalence of vector-borne diseases has increased in recent decades and that the prevalence of malaria, Lyme disease, dengue, and, in particular, West Nile virus infection are expected to increase further if control measures are not strengthened. (1)(2) This review article summarizes the epidemiology, various clinical manifestations, and management strategies of these vector-borne diseases with increasing prevalence both in the United States and worldwide.
