In this review, we discuss how climate change directly affects health risks and indirectly affects determinants of health such as clean water, nutritious foods, and access to health care. Beyond the damage to infrastructure, extreme weather events and disasters can affect the health and well being of individuals and can have catastrophic impacts on communities and health. Significant health impacts were identified, including increased morbidity and mortality due to heatwaves, floods, and vector borne diseases. the success of adaptation strategies was found to be highly dependent on local context, implementation capacity, and sustainability. This review explores the impact of extreme weather events on health outcomes and healthcare utilization in rural and remote areas, emphasizing the effects of climate change on these populations.
