Drivers of global change cause changes in the distribution and abundance of health- relevant invasive alien species. These changes subsequently lead to a change in human health impact, the topic of this synthesis. Responses by society and policy aiming at the mitigation of global change and the management of invasive alien species are currently increasing, but still not implemented in sufficient amount to halt global change and invasions of alien species [25]. Thus, medical treatment of invasive alien species’ health impacts is often required.
