We have talking robots, we have self driving cars, we have the best technology that can do almost anything. Why can we not stop mosquitoes from killing tens of thousands each year?

Why is it so hard to stop mosquitoes? Why can’t we create a solution to kill the diseases mosquitoes carry and distribute them to to the most affected people? I could be super ignorant but it seems like it would be fairly easy if multiple nations came together.

I invite you to ask yourself the following two questions:

1. How much USD have you spent on tech gadgets?
2. How much USD have you donated to malaria prevention charities?

I’m going out on a limb here and assuming #1 is at least an order of magnitude higher than #2, probably two or three if you’re more like the average citizen.
