News Flash! No. 1

I found an interesting blog post about genetically engineered mosquitoes. These suckers were genetically engineered to distribute vaccinations in their bites rather than malaria. The blog post went on to talk about how scientists are trying to fight world hunger with mosquitoes and even putting steroids in mosquitoes so that "weak Africans will grow big and strong." I honestly think that scientists are going a little far with this, but if they can help the world somehow, maybe some of the stuff they do is worth it.

The blog post came off of the following blog: themeehan.blogspot.com

It's an interesting blog as there are many random things on there that are things you wouldn't normally know or care about, but some of it is rather interesting I must say so myself. However, the information on mosquitoes (as far as the vaccinations part goes anyway) was accurate. The site for the CNN article is as follows: http://edition.cnn.com/2010/WORLD/asiapcf/03/19/japan.malaria.mosquitoe.vaccine/?hpt=Sbin
