Dengue fight goes to Choa Chu Kang, Bukit Batok

If u think about it, it is almost like forced sterilization without knowledge and consent given....uncanny resemblance to what some govts had done to prevent an expanding brood of what they considered inferior species....eugenics and social engineering comes to mind....

As part of the project, male mosquitoes carrying the Wolbachia bacterium are released to mate with female mosquitoes, causing them to lay eggs that do not hatch. The National Environment Agency (NEA) has been studying the programme since 2012.

A preliminary analysis of last year's data by the NEA showed a 65 per cent to 80 per cent drop in dengue cases in sites where the male Wolbachia-Aedes mosquitoes were released.
