Great, so if it goes wrong we just have giant supermosquitoes flying around

This will one day be a case study in the law of unintended consequences. Only it’ll be too late by then... this is assuming we even survive that long.
Scary shite is happening out there while we are told to remain indoors. :everythingsfine:

We're going to play with fire until we get burnt....
Or just plain blow up. Humans generally have no self control, this may or may not end badly, but something like this eventually will and this will have just been a step along the way.

What a great idea! I'm all for it. Kind of like what happened to the fruit fly.

If we combine Florida Man DNA with Mosquito DNA we can make 2020 even worse

My concern is how will this impact the ecosystem/food chain.

They need to do red wasps next. frick those assholes. They serve no purpose other than ruining a person’s day.
ETA: I changed my mind. Releasing 750 million red wasps seems like a HORRIBLE idea.

Oh frick off.
Unless they are engineered to kill the normal mosquitoes, this is the dumbest shite I ever heard of.

I remember first hearing about this in a radio lab podcast years ago. I think they were about to try it in Brazil at the time. Would be choice af if it works, because mosquitoes love me.

You stood on the shoulders of geniuses to accomplish something as fast as you could, and before you even knew what you had, you patented it, and packaged it, and slapped it on a plastic lunchbox, and now you’re selling it, you wanna sell it.

There are a lot of creatures that depend on mosquitoes as a food source.
