Por aquí en Mérida hay mucha gente enferma, yo creo que no sólo de dengue sino de sus muchas derivaciones y nuevos tipos de catarros, algunos combinados con los malestares intestinales. No cabe duda que es una nueva era también para virus y bacterias!
Abrazo y Buenos Vientos!!
In an attempt to control the mosquito-borne diseases yellow fever, dengue, chikungunya, and Zika fevers, a strain of transgenically modified Aedes aegypti mosquitoes containing a dominant lethal gene has been developed by a commercial company, Oxitec Ltd. If lethality is complete, releasing this strain should only reduce population size and not affect the genetics of the target populations. Approximately 450 thousand males of this strain were released each week for 27 months in Jacobina, Bahia, Brazil. We genotyped the release strain and the target Jacobina population before releases began for >21,000 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs). Genetic sampling from the target population six, 12, and 27–30 months after releases commenced provides clear evidence that portions of the transgenic strain genome have been incorporated into the target population. Evidently, rare viable hybrid offspring between the release strain and the Jacobina population are sufficiently robust to be able to reproduce in nature. The release strain was developed using a strain originally from Cuba, then outcrossed to a Mexican population. Thus, Jacobina Ae. aegypti are now a mix of three populations. It is unclear how this may affect disease transmission or affect other efforts to control these dangerous vectors. These results highlight the importance of having in place a genetic monitoring program during such releases to detect un-anticipated outcomes.
Importante información, además de preocupante.
Amlo y su incompetencia destruyendo a México.

Reconozco que hay gente trabajando. En mi ranchito la gente se toma muy en serio el dengue.

El dengue es causado por un mosquito, cierto?
El agua de coco, las patas de gallinas muy buenas para subir las defensas.

Ojala los encargados de la salud tomen cartas en el asunto.
