Environmental conditions may also change, and up to date information about risk by regions within a country may also not always be available. Dengue filariasis leishmaniasis and onchoceroasis (river blindness) are other diseases carried by insects that also occur in West Africa. African tnoanosorniasis (African sleeping sickness) has increased in Africa (it is epidemic in Angola, Democratic Republic of the Congo, and the Sudan; and highly endemic in Cameroon, Central African Republic, Chad, Congo, Cate d'ivoire, Guinea, Mozambique, Uganda, and Tanzania; low levels are found in most of the other counties), and an increase in travelers has been noted since 2000.
