Dengue fever is increasingly prevalent at higher altitudes in Nepal, raising significant public health concerns. Photographer Yuri Segalerba's work documents the presence of Aedes aegypti and Aedes albopictus mosquitoes in Chandannath, located 2438 meters above sea level, marking an expansion of the mosquito's habitat. The spread of dengue fever in Nepal is closely linked to climate change, which has created favorable conditions for mosquito survival and reproduction at higher elevations. Increased travel has also contributed to the virus's rapid dissemination across the country. As of 2025, dengue fever has been reported in 76 of Nepal's 77 districts, resulting in at least six deaths and approximately 9000 infections.
