Yes, you’re supposed to be excited and accepting of things that save millions of lives, not decry them just because they have vaguely the same shape as something evil. HN is having a real hard time here with the concept that mass death is actually bad and something that’s nice to prevent.

  Is there a better way?
  - OCASMv2 2y ago
    Yes, attack the mosquitos, not the people.

      That’s been done for decades and the problem is still severe.

        Yes, there's room for improvement.

        Perhaps the mosquitos could be infected with a modified parasite that confers immunity but doesn’t cause sickness.

        No, that's still attacking people.
