Disease-carrying mosquitoes could swarm 75% of the US

More than 75 percent of the United States is in danger of an outbreak of mosquito-borne diseases, according to a new CDC report.

Researchers analyzed county-level data of the presence and potential range for either Aedes aegypti or Aedes albopictus mosquitoes across the entire country.

They presented their results in the form of a map - which ominously shows the majority of the nation to be at-risk Zika, dengue, and yellow fever.

The findings, published late on Thursday, are a rallying cry to health officials to continue efforts against disease-carrying mosquitoes despite waning public interest about Zika.

More attention to storm ditches in our neighborhood would help quite a bit. Overgrowth and fallen trees cause stagnant water to back up. We have a mosquito magnet which does a great job. We also regularly empty standing water in flower pots, etc.

That is those Bill gates funded DNA Altered mosquitoes coming for all of us... What is funny here is, also how they are spraying all of these cities with chemicals to so called kill off said mosquitoes, and all I see dying is other bugs and the mosquitoes keep on flying and buzzing...

For those who don't see into this stuff, that is fine, but the people themselves go on public tv and tell you their plans and how they think abut us the average citizen... Bill gates did a TED talk where he released genetically altered misquotes on the crowd there to watch and laughed about it... And you say these people are not evil...

The only creature known to survive each world disaster has been a roach. That should tell you something.

anyone that believes this is an idiot. they are already spraying us from above. and more and more people realize this. so now they have to create a fake narrative to cover their tracks. they already doused texas with toxic "mosquito" chemicals from the sky. this will only give them credence to openly continue to spray us. wake up sheeple.
