Knowledge on sand-fly activity is very limited but is urgently needed to continue with research in this field. Among the currently numerous incoming asylum seekers occasional it came already to occurrence of severe, rare disorders/ diseases. Cases of parasitic diseases needs to be expected based on poor sanitary, though on the other hand by unintentional unwanted introduction of organisms such as Leishmania. When emerging pathogens are detected early enough and mode of transmission will be clearer, this can become an opportunity to implement effective preventive and active measures.Due to the current climate change subject debate in different areas, such as circulating emerging viruses and parasites, this research idea should gain should meet interest and promotion, as it touches us all in the mind and focus on public health. The management for individual responsibility should be considered, to increase interactive communications, cooperations to obtain important information on the subject for future research.
