This is not an "alternate reality," New York City does "spray something" by truck and chopper at night. https://www1.nyc.gov/site/doh/health/health-topics/west-nile-virus-spray.page https://www1.nyc.gov/site/doh/health/health-topics/west-nile... >Adulticide: Trucks spray this pesticide to kill adult mosquitoes. It is used when testing has shown a high risk to human health. Spraying occurs in the evening in residential areas and parks. >Aerial Larviciding: Helicopters drop eco-friendly larvicide over marshes and other large natural areas to kill young mosquitoes before they become adults. The City does not use helicopters to treat residential areas.

"The City does not use helicopters to treat residential areas." So how is that true? Let's just think about helicopters spraying Manhattan with a ... sanitizer? The idea is insane. People read this on Facebook and think it might be true, so what else will they believe?

  > So how is that true? This question says to me you misunderstood something in their post, which states that helicopters do spray larvicide, just not on residential areas.
