FloridaMillions of genetically modified mosquitoes could be released in the Florida Keys if British researchers win approval to use the bugs against two extremely painful viral diseases. Never before have insects with modified DNA come so close to being set loose in a residential U.S. neighborhood. “This is essentially using a mosquito as a drug to cure disease,” said Michael Doyle, executive director of the Florida Keys Mosquito Control District, which is waiting to hear if the Food and Drug Administration will allow the experiment. Dengue and chikungunya are growing threats in the U.S., but some people are more frightened at the thought of being bitten by a genetically modified organism. More than 130,000 people signed a Change.org petition against the experiment. Even potential boosters say those responsible must do more to show that benefits outweigh the risks of breeding modified insects that could bite people. Insecticides are sprayed year-round in the Keys’ charming and crowded neighborhoods. But Aedes aegypti, whose biting females spread these diseases, have evolved to resist four of the six insecticides used to kill them.

 
 

Well say goodbye to your loved ones, it’s over Johnny, it is OVER. The second we start releasing robot mosquitoes into the wild is the second we know our time here is short-lived. When has this ever gone right in the movies? Not once. They start fiddling with the DNA of animals and next thing you know it’s the apocalypse and Nic Cage or Keanu Reeves has to save the day. And of course it’s god damn Florida doing this. If I had two saws and was in a room with Florida, Alabama, and Mississippi, I would cut Florida off the map twice. Not only do they have a deadly mosquito problem, but they are solving it by releasing mutant mosquitos. Don’t they know those things can fly? One of them is going to develop a brain and start a Nazi army of mosquitoes and start terrorizing the entire East Coast. It’s so abundantly clear we are a month away from World War 3 and I’m the only person who has the foresight to do anything about this (sit at home and do nothing about it).
