Techno-Hell: Bill Gates Unleashing 30 Million Genetically Modified Mosquitoes on Colombia, Vietnam, Mexico
[Blacklisted News - PJ Media if you pay] Bill Gates’ Colombian ’mosquito factory’ is breeding 30 million bacteria-infected mosquitos per week. The project’s objective appears to be to introduce Wolbachia into native mosquito populations by employing lab-bred mosquitoes, resulting in the infection of such populations.

In a plant in Colombia, Bill Gates is currently producing 30 million bacterially-infected mosquitoes every week and he has threatened to "scale and deliver" the mosquitoes to "communities around the world."

As part of his World Mosquito Program (WMP), the Microsoft founder and self-declared World Health Czar has already invested $185 million in the establishment of the mosquito factory.

What is the project’s stated purpose? In order to eradicate native mosquito populations thought to be responsible for dengue, zika, and other viral illnesses in humans, it is necessary to utilize mosquitoes that are infected with a bacteria that induces sterility.

Gates, whose unethical "cervical cancer vaccine" trials have drawn criticism from the Indian Parliament, uploaded the video below to his YouTube channel. In the description of the video, Gates provides a broad overview of how the WMP operation in Medelln—the location highlighted in the marketing gimmick—breeds mosquitos with the bacteria Wolbachia on purpose before releasing them "across the country to breed with wild mosquitos that can carry dengue and other viruses threatening to sicken and kill the population."

#2 Massive tinkering with a natural biosphere. Good thing it's not a complex ecosystem or anything. What could possibly go wrong? Let's hope it works better than his operating system.

#3 How much did Gates have to do with the WIV?

His comments about how we have too many people and then things like this worry me.

#4 We already release billions of irradiated (sterile) mosquitos every year. Bacterial infection is another pathway to spread a self sustaining wave of sterility in the mating mosquito population. There is no genetic modification to the mosquitos or bacteria and this article is misleading and scaremongering.

#5 I get the feeling that NORAD should probably compile GPS coordinates for everything he owns.

#6 They should trying clapping pots a the mosquitos.

Same mindset.

#7 Bacterial pesticides have been sprayed on crops for 100 years. Also used to kill mosquitos. You can even buy a bottle from the hardware or feed store.

#8 WMP does not appear to provide readily robust proof that Wolbachia does not negatively impact people’s health—specifically, their reproductive health

Maybe you missed the embedded TED talk about 'gene drive', Enver.

#9 Evolution drives toward survival of the fittest. Eventually the surviving mosquitoes will develop resistance to the bacteria, just as they do to pesticides. That doesn't mean "super" mosquitoes evolve, only resistant to that agent. New biological and chemical pesticides will be developed, just as there are with human infectious agents. It's a race and human intelligence is faster than biological evolution.

#10 As far as affecting peoples' health, give a source. The article mentioned inflammation in cats and dogs but nematode infection will do that by itself.

#11 The US EPA did the required Health and Risk Assessment of this technology back in 2019 and posted it in 2020.

A fair number of studies were done. No adverse incidents.
