Zika outbreak epicenter comes from the same area Genetically Modified Mosquitoes was released in 2015.
The recent outbreak of Zika virus in Brazil could be linked to genetically modified mosquitoes developed by the British biotech company Oxitec.
Oxitec has been releasing the genetically modified Aedes mosquitoes into the wild in Brazil since 2011 to battle dengue fever. The company produces up two million genetically modified mosquitoes a week in its factory in Campinas, Brazil.
The Zika virus, which has been detected in 18 of the 26 states in Brazil, is transmitted by the Aedes mosquito. At the same time there have been 270 confirmed cases of microcephaly and 3,448 suspected cases, up from 147 in 2014.
Today the health ministers in Latin American countries are advising “women not to get pregnant for the next two years” due to an “outbreak of the Zika virus”. There is no vaccine for Zika yet, and although the U.S. government has been working on one for the past month. The head of a Brazilian biomedical center, said final development could take several years.
American Airlines also began to issuing refunds to pregnant passengers holding tickets to El Salvador, Honduras, Panama and Guatemala.
The claim being carried by the media and medical authorities is that the microcephaly results from the pregnant mother being infected by mosquito borne transmission of the African zika virus yet the pattern of symptoms does not match the virus which has been proven to have infected humans since 1954. Zika transmission has never previously been associated with microcephaly in newborn babies, nor does the geographic propagation pattern match the natural propagation pattern of mosquito borne illness.
You simply can’t have a "mild virus" that has caused little problems with newborns suddenly become the virus that 'spreading explosively', out of nowhere. 3448 newborns in a single country between November 1 and December 30 with absolutely none happening before means that it is being caused by something else?
Brazil is the number one consumer of pesticides in the world, almost a million tons last year.
Controversial experimental releases of 3 million GM mosquitoes produced by Oxitec took place in the Cayman Islands (a British Overseas Territory which has no biosafety law) in 2009 and 2010. A smaller number of Oxitec's GM mosquitoes were released in December 2010 in Malaysia. In 2011 experiments began in Brazil, which are still ongoing. According to Oxitec, future experimental releases are planned in other countries. However, Vietnam has stated that it does not intend to release GM mosquitoes and plans in the US have been delayed pending a regulatory assessment.
Man has been engineering nature and ecosystems ever since we came out of a cave. What is different now is that we are beginning to engineer species!
