It does?! That's terrible. I didn't read the article even though I've recently been in both malaria and yellow fever belts. My friends list is all a twitter about the use of gmo mosquitoes in malaria control. I personally think it's great. > Garbage MUST be segregated into plastics, paper and wet garbage at > source. garbage must be dealt with at source.

I've seen effective post-disposal separation programs and that approach seems ideal for India where there is an abundance of cheap labor. It seems to me the problem is more around quick and efficient collection so that garbage doesn't sit around for days smelling bad and attracting vermin. What am I missing? -- Charles
