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 this the only way to prevent it? No.

[wat10000]

Is there a better way?

[OCASMv2]

Yes, attack the mosquitos, not the people.

[wat10000]

[OCASMv2]

Yes, there's room for improvement.

[wat10000]

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