This could have been halted had not DDT been banned due to the actions by the wacko environmentalists.

50 million lives have been lost due to banning DDT!

Great Im in one of those counties. I guess I’d better not get pregnant.

I have seen pictures of people with small heads that look like the ones affected by Zika. Is there another cause of the small head syndrome or is it always and only caused by Zika?

DDT Ban Breeds Death

A 1972 insecticide ban on DDT literally causes the deaths of about a million people per year, though an extensive investigation by the U.S. EPA found that DDT is safe.

I would think that this is going to have a tremendous impact on tourism and cruises. People are already thinking more carefully about where they vacation because of terrorism and “migrant” concerns.

Any swampy place is mosquito infested. It’s hard to travel a mile in Florida without being near a swamp. This will soon be statewide.

Should bring back DDT as the crap they use now does not work.

More than 300 million affected with malaria since the DDT ban but hey, at least some song birds are singing and the seagull eggs are harder.

50 million lives have been lost due to banning DDT!

But they were third world black and brown lives, not western white progressives; therefore they don't count.

“States of emergency”? How many states does this FL governor govern?

Florida Governor Declares States of Emergency

"This business will get out of control.
It will get out of control and we'll be lucky to live through it."

[fruser1]

So what exactly is a state of emergency going to do here?

They going to start limiting travel? Martial law?

Here’s a clue:

“Hillsborough County is paying workers overtime to increase spraying. Officials in Pinellas County are planning to educate people about removing standing water where mosquitoes breed, and are also looking to expand the county’s spraying program to target specifically the mosquitoes that carry Zika. “

So one, which seems like an ok idea, is that they might bypass any eco Nazi law against pesticides to get rid of mosquitos.

Secondly, maybe not so good, is that b.s. employees now get to get overtime pay for driving around telling folks about mosquito breeding habits.

I guess if they limit it to a PSA or webpage update, that’s cool, but it could technically extend to sending “puddle Nazis” out in force.

We better get used to seeing headlines like this with Open Borders by someone like Rubio.

"[DDT]'s got too much emotional baggage and environmental baggage associated with it," Conlon told FoxNews.com.

"Rachael Carson, your baggage is being held at the Left Luggage office at Gate 9!"

Sorry it’s a fake crisis, and you are falling for it, by the Establishment, hook line and sinker.

They want to “Vaccinate” everyone. This is their excuse.

You are too trusting of a bunch of lying politicians that are not looking out for you.

Here in Pittsburgh they have The Rachael Carson Bridge in South Side. I told my wife they named a bridge after a mass murderer.

This crap is likely already spread all over the USA by illegal aliens...like the thousands of them from Central America.
