Original Note:
The current context added is speculation. This type of gene modification predates the linked 2022 YouTube video. It’s not clear where the video is from originally and the evidence shown isn’t enough to warrant a community note. See articles from 2019/2020 https://www.npr.org/sections/goatsandsoda/2019/02/20/693735499/scientists-release-controversial-genetically-modified-mosquitoes-in-high-securit https://www.cnn.com/2020/08/19/health/gmo-mosquitoes-approved-florida-scn-wellness/index.html
