Sounds good, but the scientists are still unsure about how to actually apply this to the world's large mosquito population."

Just make sure that you're only bitten by these malaria-resistant mosquitoes.

Wonder if it's possible if they could introduce this new species in the old environment and have it wipe out the old kind. That's what they do with killer bees, they replace the killer queen with a homely queen and all the bees born thereafter and normal and well-adjusted.
