GMO mosquito report
By Mexican Anonymous
The GMO mosquito that was released in Brazil had a so-called "safety mechanism" built into it to "prevent it from breeding beyond one generation in the wild". The safety mechanism was a scam designed to fail, because it was based around the antibiotic tetracycline. Sounds good, right? well, NO, not if you understand where antibiotics come from
Antibiotics are manufactured naturally, in the wild, by mostly bacteria and fungi. Antibiotics are produced by many lower organisms so they can poison their environment against competing species. The antibiotic tetracycline, was supposed to be a "kill switch" for the GMO mosquitoes. If it was not present, any generation of mosquito larvae NOT EXPOSED to it would be sterile, but still develop to adulthood. So the GMO biologists scammed the approval process by "Proving their mosquitoes could not produce fertile offspring unless tetracycline was present in the water the larvae grew in".
PROBLEM: Tetracycline is produced in abundance by the most common soil bacteria in the world, a bacteria so common it is what gives dirt it's "earthy" smell. So by using tetracycline as a "kill switch" for the mosquito in the lab, the producers of the mosquitoes scammed common core federally employed IDIOT "biologists" into allowing the mosquito to be released because the federal employees were too stupid to realize what antibiotics were derived from, and did not realize tetracycline would be in the dirt everywhere, that it would wash into all bodies of water, and that it would totally disable the reproductive "kill switch". The designers of the mosquitoes knew this, there was no possible way for them to have been too stupid to know this.
Virtually all antibiotics are derived from natural sources that are prevalent in the wild. It is OK for average people to not know that, but for the biologist inspectors and others involved in the approval process, not knowing antibiotics are all over the place in the wild amounts to an epic common core fail, a pass given to absolute failures who did not know anything about their job beyond the paper training required to get out of school. The GMO scammers took advantage of that and released a probable monster.
