Now, a team of independent researchers analyzing an early trial of Oxitec's technology is raising alarm—and drawing fire from the firm—with a report that some offspring of the GM mosquitoes survived and produced offspring that also made it to sexual maturity. As a result, local mosquitoes inherited pieces of the genomes of the GM mosquitoes, the team revealed last week in Scientific Reports.
ya after a few generations new type evolved
crisprX now promoting dat the tech. is good for disease modifications thr. the genes
we r afraid they modify us to be controlled
own initiative or doing experiments for some groups?
Biological warfare Big Grin
The quickest solution to reduce dengue and Zika is actually... Release more dragonflies...
Dragon flies ' babies are found in the lake of Lakeside
They r warriors devouring others

If NEA despite knowing this, still willfully release these mosquitoes (5m ) every week, should they be charged for crimes against humanity?

Where to find it’s rare now hardly see dragonflies
dragonflies not practical. they stay in ponds for yrs as larva before evolving into adults

Yap dragonflies  are gone n few can be spotted but 
Buttterflies a lot
GM insects had been a big business.....and there is a lot of under unknown when such GM creatures are released into the open...The most famous dangerous outcome was the creation of Killer Bees which was a lab attempt to create a hybrid between an African subspecies and European subspecies of honeybee in 1957.

Next will be no more mosqitoes ? Wow so good..
Frogs, more frogs. 
Any long kang just station frogs.
