But we also might make these situations worse with no ability to reverse the effects once released into the environment.”....With viruses and bacteria constantly mutating and threatening human and animal life isn't that what we face now? Are we to repeat history and wait till the Ebola virus kills thousands before we created a gmo vaccine which saved lives? What are the consequences of ridding ourselves of the non-native mosquito? Obviously ridged testing must be completed before any release of these mosquitoes. Those looking for 100% guarantees other than death and taxes fail to understand the science of things.
