The drug companies will sell mosquitos a drug that protects them from human blood...

Sickle Cell Anemia was a condition that protected humans from malaria, but has terrible symptoms today. They have treatments, but they are $2.2M, plus care.

Tabasco Sauce. We’ve known for years.

One way to stop the spread of diseases transmitted by insects is to make the blood of animals and humans toxic

Does cyanide work? Our peer reviewed studies show that it is safe on humans.

There was a time in my life, decades ago, I probably sent some mosquitoes to their maker by alcohol poisoning.

If they kill off the mosquitos, then the whole food chain suffers. This is not a good idea.

[TornadoAlley3]

There it is. Last paragraph. Climate change causes more mosquitos.

[BenLurkin]

The world has gone mad.

I’d love to pay those skeeters back for giving me malaria.
I felt like I would have to get better to die.

"DC Judge Rules Against Nitisinone Makers in Favor of Mosquito Reproduction Rights"

[NativeSon]

I want that!

EVERYTHING bites the sh*t out of me.

I have found B complex pills refuse itchy mosquito bites. As an avid golfer I battled mosquitos often. B vitamin rich blood tastes bitter to mosquitos. They take one sip and fly away.

Eat the flowers of the plantain plant as a mosquito repellent.
About a half dozen per day, it starts to work after a couple weeks.
They don’t taste bad.

Old Ojibwa Indian trick.

[LegendHasIt]

Oh, Yeah, I want stuff in my blood that poisons critters.... (I’m a critter too.)

Sounds like something Gates- Pfizer- ModeRNA would like to fill us up with.

[HerrBlucher]

I used to get eaten alive by mosquitoes. Now they don’t touch me. Bourbon is the best mosquito repellent out there.

[ZOOKER]

There's a problem in logic here.

Say I take this drug and am bitten by a malarial mosquito. Maybe the bug dies, but I still get malaria, right?

Seems to me this idea of ending malaria by killing off mosquitos only works if every human and every animal is vaccinated.

Haven't we been down this path before?

[gunnut]

What could possibly go wrong? Turning our blood into insecticide….

[maddog55]

DDT works fine against mosquitoes and other bugs. I used it for years in the 60s and I’m fine.

[Getready]

Why not spray the mosquitoes with the stuff? Why put it in my body in hopes it will eventually kill the mosquito (after it passes all diseases it carries to me)?

I’ll pass. Thanks to the covid scam, any new drug is highly questionable.
