El Niño events escalate disease outbreaks and alter the spread of infections.

we are likely to see higher malnutrition rates due to crop failure and increased food
insecurity.

When children are denied access to wholesome food, clean water, sanitary
facilities, or medical care due to El Nino's effects, they are more likely to
experience hunger, become gravely malnourished, or catch fatal
infections.
Droughts and excessive rains are two environmental problems that may arise during an El Niño.
El Niño can cause long-lasting droughts in areas that usually experience dry conditions, such as
what we are experiencing right now. It can also disturb regular precipitation patterns. Damage to
communities, agriculture, and infrastructure may result from these changes. Marine ecosystems
can be severely impacted by El Nino conditions. Warmer water temperatures have the potential
to cause coral bleaching and mass extinctions of several marine species. This has a major effect
on biodiversity and has the potential to upset the food chain.
