Malaria and "Silent Spring" | Retro Report

[@paulorufalco]

Very good report. But can you put the reference cited in 11:44? (I'm a epidemiologist reseacrh and I don't have this information!)

[@fhhfhdfdhhdhhdfhdf138]

this claim could be from the world malaria report, this website has references to it: factmyth.com/factoids/malaria-killed-half-the-people-who-have-ever-lived/

5:57 *Carson not Carlson🤡

did you just unironically use the clown emoji

[@stevencarr7605]

Damn why can’t we make them go extinct like other animals

[@StevePhillips]

This video is clearly mistaken. The mosquito didn't build any resistance to DDT this is because it didn't work by killing the mosquito through ingestion. DDT was simply a repellent. Naturally if a mosquito got over exposed it would die of toxicity, but at least 93% of mosquito would detect it was their and clear off. the searcher of this video most likely is aware of that. It is simply propaganda to keep it band. And they wish to generically modify the mosquito that could prove fatal for human kind instead of bringing back DDT. The ban is all about the United Nations depopulation plan. Killing millions of Africans every year that die of malaria.

That is not how DDT works. When it is absorbed it sends pulses through your neural pathway and you spasm out. There can easily be a mutation that closes the pathway for DDT. I dunno why youd deny evolution.

[@StevePhillips]

@@lukaskraak9313 It's nothing to do with evolution. It's a scientific fact DDT is only a repellent. It simply doesn't work by ingestion. The mosquito do not go near it, unless by accident. Japanese scientists did the study. See The Excellent Powder: DDT’s Political and Scientific History Richard Tren, Donald Roberts, Roger Bate, Jennifer Zambone

There are no infectious diseases. Period.

@@garetcrossman6626 These days when I see such comment unlike the old days. I tend to agree with you entirely. Maybe people are simply being poisoned another way.

Why does YT say there are 4 replies to this, but only 1 reply is shown? Hmmm...

A poor video that ignores the realistic chance that malaria could have been eradicated worldwide, as it was on entire continents, if DDT had been used properly.

[@jonnnyroundsy3107]

We're still dealing with the negative effects of big chemical companies lying to us. So spare me you're, "if ddt was used correctly bullshit." make your own video no one will watch it.

[@marchevka22x]

@@jonnnyroundsy3107 It wiped out malaria in much of the world. Malaria kills millions in the areas it still prevails in. This in not 'bullshit", its fact.

The earth was cursed in the first book of the bible. All fixes create new problems that can't be fixed.

[@marchevka22x]

Carson's "research" in Silent Spring was nothing more than made up lies. Almost all, if not all, of her claims were simply untrue. As but one example, the idea that DDT lessened the thickness of bird shell eggs, was just malarky.

[@jonnnyroundsy3107]

So ddt was good and big oil and chemical companies were doing just fine?! Lol

[@marchevka22x]

@@jonnnyroundsy3107 DDT has saved millions of lives. This is definitely good. As to "big' oil (why is being "big" accepted as a pejorative?) and chemical companies, what exactly does your anger towards them have to do with wiping out malaria?

oh wow you must love $cience

@@Miss.Scarlett Yes, wow, wasn't that such wonderful '$cience'! Sorta like the 'Radium', fluoride and so many other for profit '$cience' fads too. Don't they sound like other kinds of similar '$cience' for profit scams today?
