When did Google become a Public Health Authority?
By Ben Swann
The tech supergiant’s life sciences arm Verily just asked the EPA for permission to release up to 64 MILLION mosquitoes across Florida & California.
These aren’t ordinary bugs. They’re infected with Wolbachia bacteria, designed to mate with wild mosquitoes and make their eggs fail to hatch, crashing the population over time.
The supposed goal? Fight diseases like Zika without pesticides.
On the surface it sounds clever. But here’s the real question no one is asking: Since when does one of the world’s most powerful tech companies get to run giant biological experiments on entire ecosystems?
Governments and corporations have a long, ugly track record of public health “solutions” that went horribly wrong. Yet we’re supposed to just trust that this corporate mosquito release will work exactly as planned with zero unintended consequences?
The bigger issue isn’t whether the science checks out. It’s who decided a private tech giant now has the authority to alter nature on this scale. And who keeps handing them that power in the first place?
