Good, but must be strictly controlled
No. Malaria is good for world population control
"It's not nice to fool with mother nature."
Can this be mutated into working on liberals and possibly even lying weasel pawn “reporters” from mainstream? If so this will solve many problems we have in this country
No, because you just might create something worse. Jeff Goldblum said it best in Jurassic Park- nature finds a way.
Scientists still wonder why evolution creates more diseases....eradicating is not a good idea.
THis is not a mosquito. It's what happens when you let CNN report anything they call news. It's a bug that passes on disease much like all their pundits!
i bet when pasteur was growing bacteria in petri dishes not everyone thought it was a great idea. i think the scientific community should unite on this particular matter and work towards its responsible application. like creating genetically superior humans, maybe?
No, short sighted. No one knows the implications. Removing one vector just makes room for another one.

Good
What do u mean by « but is it a good idea? » ? Please develop your idea
Why wouldn't it be a good idea? 🤔
Better than 450,000 people dying every year!
Yes. Murder these bastards. There are three main types of disease-carrying mosquitoes and hundreds that don't carry diseases. We can eliminate the three disease carriers and replace them with ones that don't commute malaria, West Nile, Zika, etc.
Isnt this how we got Zika virus?
kill them all
Until I see evidence to the contrary, yes. It seems like one.
YES!!!
NO species of ANYTHING should be wiped out without THOROUGH research !!!
RED WAVE SOON
Genocide is bad.
Scores of the three I've shown this to: 2 yeses and 1 no
A female mosquito just filed an affidavit with the courts to block the gene editing tool. She claims 'gene' is a male name and sexist.
OMG, real news.. look at you CNN, stay out of politics, your bias is showing.
Sterilizing mosquitoes definetely leads to the eradication of malaria. I thing british researchers could team up with an australian institute whose results are already evident
At this point in time it seems like a breakthrough, first it would be prudent to quantify the gene editing tool success rate over time in different geographical locations. As a fact technology can do wonders intended for the right reasons in making the world FreeOfMalaria
Bad idea to release them in the wild. Reasons: 1. they have a purpose in the ecosystem 2. how mosquitoes will adapt and evolve still unknown 3. malaria controls human population
It just means less people getting sick because of malaria and other deadly sicknesses.
Let's hope they'll be careful and not create something worse 🙄 😬
Is this not how I Am Legend happened?
No, it's a terrible idea. Africa will become even more overpopulated for what its natural resources can sustain. This in turn will lead to famine, war and even more mass migration into Europe and elsewhere. Leave well alone.
.... why wouldn’t it be a good idea. 🤦🏻♀️
No, it's not, the ecological implications are are unknown, the genes produced are highly unstable.
Good✔✔✔
Ask those who lost their loved ones because of malaria
NO.
Malaria Zika Deformaties Still Births Apocalypse - I vote NO on releasing genetically altered mosquitos zombieapocalypse
Or entire ethic groups of human beings .. does anyone read sci-fi at all this is how planetary war start zombie infections.
Unintended consequences?
Wow!!
A good idea if 5m by malaria death a year must be avoided and in particular in tropics
Malaria has killed more people than it hasn’t.
Sounds like the plot for a new movie... 🍿
Wow!
Ooo
Think they might evolve and kill other insects or even animals?
I ain't a good idea coz for nature to balance all species have to be available be harmful or not
Er, ah, yes?
Maybe they can try it on fake news reporters and Democrats. Eradicating those pests would be the best thing that could happen to this good Earth.
Now I want to know the answer to this question?
Yes. Wipe out all mosquitoes. They serve no purpose on this earth but to annoy all other animals and beings.
I agree mosquito is a insificant species
Wipe before they wipe us,good idea.
Yes, gene-editing is the future
No it's not. Then you can't use the "mosquitoes excuse" to spread fear and other viruses in the future. WestNile Zika Dengue CNN FakeNews FakeNewsCNN FakeNewsMedia CnnIsFakeNews
Probably not considering something worse will come along as a result
Yeah, sure it is....because the species lacking the disease carrying capabilities will still be left to create balance in their respective ecosystems. So basically, important organisms depending on them won't undergo extinction.
No wtf, u can't genocide an entire species cause they cause you discomfort and kill people cause if thats how we do things we should kill all humans cause we fuck up ecosystems and kill millions of species every year! PS. This is a human, not a cat speaking
My opinion is , try to buy time, Best time is realizing the graphs , nice snatch
That's a good question
couldn't they also infect those same animals to use in war/genocides?
Maybe
Noooooooo.
Kavanaugh had a wife before..
Yes
No. Mossies provide food for a wide variety of birds & reptiles.
