The head of administration at the National Center for Epidemolgy and an expert on marmot plague, A.Dolgorkhand, said at the meeting that incidence of marmot plague and crab louse infection has been increasing every year. Even though there are not many fatalities, it has to be studied how climate change affects the spread of infection.
