The increase in extremely hot summers predicted by climate change models will lead to a higher death toll that will not be offset by fewer deaths during warmer winters, say researchers. โ€œThe increase in mortality when you have one extra cold snap is 1.59%, but the increase in mortality for an additional heatwave is 5.74%,โ€ explains Mercedes Medina-Ramรณn of Harvard University’s School of Publicย Health.
