dc.descriptionThis expert opinion discusses the potential impact of climatic change on vector abundance, survival and transmission of tick-borne pathogens in western, central and eastern Africa. It also discusses the following cases: (1) Rhipicephalus microplus with a focus in West and Central Africa and (2) northern expansion of Rhipicephalus appendiculatus into South Sudan through anthropogenic cattle movement.
