Mosquitoes Might Save Lives, Thanks To Bacteria | I Contain Multitudes

[@Gardeningat58N]

Great video, I can't believe it has so few views, Keep making great videos like this and I'm sure your channel will take off in no time. I would love to see some videos about microbes and plants. Plants have so many interactions with surrounding microbes in the soil.

Gardening at 58 North It's normally how it goes unfortunately. Someone released a stupid video blog of their boring life and it gets millions of views. Then someone releases an informative video like this and they get little to no views.

How lucky it is to find a bacterium that prevents dengue in mosquitos! Great video!

[@FerndaleMichiganUSA]

I think the production people are brilliant. Graphics, information, what's not to love?

[@simomoforever]

Great production! suitable for adult and kids. I wonder why there are so few subscribers?

[@LaSnek]

Let me explain how wolbachia stops dengue.Basicly wolbachia takes up all the space not allowing dengue to spread.

[@ashwinivelu203]

Is there any specific mechanisms how wolbachia stops dengue other then cytoplasmic in compatability its only reducing the life span.

Sir, how are you not in league with SciShow?!

Unleash a successful bacterium in a new vector? Absurd, and I hate how proponents ignore the bad things this bacterium does.

In Nature Everything will try to survive. Hence in a matter of time Mosquito will overcome this problem and Survive.

great video, although i found the title a bit clickbait-y. unless those mosquitos also make the humans they bite immune or cure them or something ridiculous, they’re not good. and by any means they’re not inherently good.

[@jaedenvanderberg3890]

Could a fine commentor answer this question please? How does this thing I heard about work, micro organisms take DNA from other micro organisms.

[@jaedenvanderberg3890]

I Contain Multitudes thanks for answering, but I got to ask this if it isn't a hassle. If characteristics created by evolution can affect the evolution speeds and methods of evolution of a creature and evolution is drivin by mistakes. Are there any organisms that have evolved an off switch for evolution and are therefore VERY primitive? I. Shall now stop asking.

[@Coolbuddy843]

very informative. thanks for upload

I had my IQ test at Monash University

I had malaria

[@rossmacd2011]

A partial solution that may prove dominant.In addition DDT must be reinstated and used forcefully as well.Other solutions also.Eradication efforts of mosquito and other arthropod vectors does not have the urgent priority needed.It should be war, instead of mere resistance.I liked this video and found the principal personalities likable and watchable.
