GMO Mosquitos

"local bugs could evolve to outsmart the genetically modified males." I don't know where I stand on this. If it works it could be great. There is always a fear when it comes to new technology and that is because it hasn't been around long enough for us to see what the outcome will be in the long term. We can either predict that it will be ultimately safe or harmful and right at the beginning that is unknown. If there are other types of mosquitos that carry Dengue then this isn't going to get rid of it for good anyway unless they branch out and genetically modify other types of mosquitos as well. The last thing we would want is the creation of super bugs, super mosquitos as well as a super strain of Dengue. When we try to play God it may backfire. I'm not really on board with gmo in general.
