Slums, climate change and human health in sub-Saharan Africa

Abstract

Infec-tious disease outbreaks are also precipi-tated by the high population density found in these areas, with overcrowding triggering epidemic-prone infections like pertussis and influenza.Children bear a disproportionate burden of disease in slums. In Ethiopia and the Niger, rates of child malnutri-tion in both urban slums and rural areas are around 40%.
