Climate change and its influence on human health centered debates Friday in the final day of the International Cuba-Health Convention 2012, in this capital.

Doctor Marilyn Aparicio, of Bolivia, referred to the earth slips provoked by intense rains, a current problem in its country that causes thousands of dead and missing people every year.

Aparicio explained that a new problem worries Bolivian experts, and it is the detection of the mosquito Aedes Aegypti, transmitter of dengue fever, in La Paz, capital of Bolivia, a city located at more than 3,000 meters high, where the mosquito never existed before.

"We are seeing as the vectors adapt to new environmental conditions," Aparicio added.

For his part, Oscar Feo, of Venezuela, assured that a deep environmental crisis is being lived, in which contamination, loss of the biodiversity and a model of untenable consumption favour the increase of the global temperature, disappearance of glaciers and increment of the level of the sea.

Every day, 80 million barrels of petroleum are consumed and 13 million hectares (more than 32.1 million acres)of forests get lost in the entire world.

In another moment of the day the debate centered on the stratified use of instruments of active investigation for early perception of dysfunctions of the neuro-development in Cuba.

Precocious detection of auditory defects, problems of learning and dysfunctions in the elder adult are some of the programs established in the country and extended to other nations, specialists of the Center of Neuro Sciences explained.

An important role on it was played by the application of the neuro-technology, particularly the teams of national production.
