Brazil witnessed a fourfold increase in the disease’s spread this year, attributed partly to the release of gene-edited mosquitoes by the United Nations.
Dengue fever, carried by mosquitoes, is swamping the populations of Brazil and Peru, Argentina, Laos and causing major concerns in other parts of the world.
It has spiked fourfold in Brazil just this year following the release of millions of gene-edited mosquitos by the World Mosquito Program run by the United Nations.
