致编辑-我们同意Gautret等人的观点，即非气候驱动因素对塑造整个非洲疟疾的未来至关重要;这就是为什么我们在社论中提到其他驱动因素。然而，我们也认为，气候和病媒传播的疾病之间的关联是足够显着的，以保证持续的科学interests.Gautret等人评论了越来越多的出版物，在最近几十年来描述气候和病媒传播的疾病（VBDs）之间的关系。这一增长与科学出版物产出的普遍激增相一致，这是由于互联网和开放获取科学的出现。然而，无风不起浪;对VBD的日益关注可能与一个实际问题有关，科学证据表明气候已经有利于建立本土病媒和在新地区出现VBD爆发。
To the Editor—We agree with Gautret et al that nonclimatic drivers are critical in shaping the future of malaria throughout Africa; this is why we alluded to other drivers in our editorial. However, we also argue that the association between climate and vector-borne diseases is sufficiently significant to warrant continued scientific interest.Gautret et al commented on the increasing number of publications in recent decades describing the relationship between climate and vector-borne diseases (VBDs). This increase is consistent with a general upsurge in scientific publication output, owing to the advent of the Internet and open-access science. However, there is rarely smoke without fire; the growing interest in VBD is likely linked to a tangible problem with resultant growth in scientific evidence that climate has already favored the establishment of indigenous vectors and emergence of VBD outbreaks in new regions.
