There are other diseases that are likely to be exacerbated in a warmer world including food-borne and respiratory diseases. It has been shown that reported cases of salmonellosis peak in the hot summer months and that this association was observed at temperatures greater than 7.5°C [36]. We consider the effect of climate change on food-borne diseases to be minimal providing appropriate food handling and storage procedures and improved food hygiene as previously reported by Lake and colleagues [37]. Respiratory diseases are mainly linked to air quality. Concentrations of air pollutants (mainly ozone and particulate matter) would increase with greenhouse gas emissions and higher temperatures [38]. Because the main driver of respiratory disease is air pollution itself rather than climate change, it will not be included in our high priority climate sensitive diseases. In addition, the main intervention for respiratory diseases is emission reduction, which is beyond the scope of this study.
