Mosquito-borne diseases in the U.S. - Statistics & Facts

Mosquitoes are the deadliest creatures in the world because of the many diseases they can transmit. Mosquito-borne diseases include the Zika virus, dengue, malaria, West Nile virus, chikungunya, yellow fever, and more. Different regions are impacted by different mosquito-borne diseases depending on climate, the types of mosquitoes common in the region, and access to preventative measures and medicine. However, the impact of such diseases remains widespread. In 2020, malaria alone was responsible for around 627,000 deaths worldwide.
