This helps prevent malaria.

For the first time in 20 years, authorities have identified locally acquired malaria cases in the United States.
The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) announced last week that four Floridians and one person in Texas are being treated for the mosquito-borne illness. They say that the Texas case is not related to those in Florida.
Malaria is a serious, potentially fatal disease that the CDC says should be treated as a medical emergency. However, it had been considered eliminated from the United States since 1951, thanks to the mosquito repellent known as DDT.
The Excellent Powder U.S. home-spraying operations had commenced just four years earlier, in 1947, when there were 15,000 cases of malaria in the Southeast alone. Only four years later, the disease was almost unheard of. It’s now such a distant memory that people have lost their fear of it and forgotten the danger.
Malaria could be eradicated worldwide by now if not for the global ban of DDT in the 1970s. That came after a vicious, unsubstantiated smear campaign in the 1960s by radical environmentalists. They spread lies about DDT thinning bird eggshells, killing humans, and causing cancer.
Though all allegations against DDT have been proven wrong, the United Nations Environment Program still classifies the pesticide as one of 12 “Persistent Organic Pollutants,” effectively banning it in most countries.
Disastrous Results As a result, hundreds of thousands of people perish each year. CDC estimated 241 million cases worldwide in 2020, and 627,000 deaths. Most of the latter are children in sub-Saharan Africa.
The agency also estimates around 2,000 malaria cases in the U.S. annually, but it credits international travelers who bring it back with them. That is what makes the latest CDC announcement troubling — the cases in Florida and Texas are locally acquired.

Bring it back! Bring it back!
Malaria Obama?? The daughter??
Is this because the media and government bashed Ivermectin?
Masks. Lockdowns. Hypodermic shots. CDC orders each morning.
Fauci.
It’s like a big mirror ball above the dance floor and it’s time for disco and stayin alive.
Polio, TB, and now malaria all making a comeback—just more of those ‘gifts to America’ from Biden’s border busters.
Can us say “illegals”. What else have they brought?
“credits international travelers”
Code for border jumpers. After years of eradication, I read that in New Mexico, TB and polio are also on the rise among children. Welcome to the third world.
No, it’s because BILL GATES and his “scientists” released them into Florida and California and Texas.
Bill Gates had one company designed mosquitoes which they released in Texas and Florida. Then another company he owns he spent $168 million designing a malaria vaccine. It’s pretty simple math he plans to make all shit pile of money.
I thought there was a polIo vaccine.
…..
So, when you allow millions of illegal aliens from around the world to stream across the U.S. border without screening of any kind, third world diseases start popping up? GASP! Whoever could have predicted it?
This helps prevent malaria.
No way. Wormwood is referenced in the Book of Revelation. As Charlton Heston said, “You will drink bitter waters.”
I don’t see it proscribed in Scripture. I do know that ARTEMISININ, which is a natural product of wormwood, does successfully treat malaria. I don’t know that simply by reading documents on it. I know that from experience. It worked where chloroquine did not. It is much easier on the body than quinine. And, the other anti-malaria med I’ve experiences is larium. THAT drug has worse side effects than malaria.
DDT is essentially harmless to mammals; but we know it devastates mosquitoes.
Bad science linked it to POTENTIALLY affecting the shells on captive Eagles
So they banned something that we know saves MILLIONS of lives a year; over an alleged link that may potentially affect a few birds
That’s a liberal mind in action
I was just teasing. I don’t know whether it would work or not.
I guess Gin and Tonics will be back in style.
Is that the chicken pox vaccine?
(You said “pollo.”)
The only thing non-Classical “Liberals” care about is the power to control other people’s lives.
