We need to pass a law that makes it illegal for private citizens to release any form of genetically modified organisms without going through the normal regulatory process. The random release of genetically modified organisms into our environment affects everyone without their consent or knowledge. Why should private citizens be allowed to use the American people as guinea pigs and conduct experiments on us without our permission and without disclosing their intentions to us? Gates has released genetically modified mosquitoes, but what is their purpose? Will these mosquitoes vaccinate us or alter our DNA? We have the right to know beforehand what the consequences of releasing genetically modified organisms into our environment will be for us and for the environment in the long term. Therefore the need for this legislation is paramount.
There already is a law prohibiting what you describe: the Federal Insecticide, Fungicide, and Rodenticide Act. There’s a lot of misinformation online about this issue.
It’s to lower the population of mosquitoes. Mosquitoes spread viruses to humans, so less of them is better for us.
No arrest and try him for crimes against humanity. His crimes are bigger than mosquitoes, too limiting.
Maybe that is what they said it was for, but cases of malaria were reported after he released them. He should not be allowed to release genetically modified anything. We should have a say.
Ban Bill Gates from anything health related! He is a computer Geek. Pretty sure he did not receive any formal education in science nor in public health!
Glad to see this addressed, but I think there should be a complete ban, including governmental organizations. This would include GMO insects, plants, or other vectors of disease or genetic material.
Bill Gates specifically mentioned his mosquitos as a delivery vehicle for vaccines. And it is very suspicious that viral illnesses that are not endemic to the US are now showing up in the areas where his franken mosquitos have been released (i.e. Dengue Fever, and various encephalitises).
Even if there is some theoretic, altruistic potential benefit for human health, the potential for disaster is too great.
Ban this technology completely!
uphold existing law - Bill Gates is doing crimes against humanity, lack of informed consent, bioweapon release = CHARGE FOR EXISTING CRIMES OF LAW ON THE BOOKS.
Yeah and I have a bridge to sell you! How would you like to pay cash or card? Please tell me you’re kidding right!? Bill Gates is a monster if you think any of his missions are noble and for the betterment of society you are delusional my friend wake the hell up! If bill has his dollars and any input in it rest assured it’s not good for us, it’s an attempt to depopulate the planet which is his main concern and goal why would you take anything from that evil creature!
