A bizarre experiment funded by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation developed a new vaccine strategy using mosquito bites as a delivery vector in pursuit of developing a “next generation” malaria vaccine.

The experiment was conducted by researchers at the Leiden University Medical Center (LUMC) in Leiden, Netherlands, and published last month in the peer-reviewed New England Journal of Medicine.

Researchers explained how they used the bites of mosquitos to deliver a short-lived malaria vaccine comprised of genetically modified malaria parasites.

“We conducted a double-blind, controlled clinical trial to evaluate the safety, side-effect profile, and efficacy of immunization, by means of mosquito bites, with a second-generation genetically attenuated parasite (GA2) — a mei2 single knockout P. falciparum NF54 parasite (sporozoite form) with extended development into the liver stage,” the researchers stated.

The Plasmodium falciparum (P. falciparum) parasite causes malaria in humans.

The method was meant to boost immunity through bites from mosquitoes carrying a genetically engineered version of the parasite that causes malaria.

First, researchers bioengineered two different types of malaria parasites for the experiment, GA1 and GA2.

GA1 was “designed to stop developing about 24 hours after infection in humans,” but had limited effectiveness, leading to the development of GA2.

GA2 was “designed to stop developing about six days post-infection, during the crucial period where the parasites replicate in human liver cells.”

The experiment was carried out in two stages.

Researchers at Leiden University Medical Center, backed by the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, have developed a new method of delivering malaria vaccines using genetically modified mosquitoes as “flying vaccinators.”

The Blaze reports that in a study published in the New England Journal of Medicine, scientists have demonstrated the effectiveness of using mosquitoes as “flying syringes” to vaccinate humans against malaria. The research, conducted at the Leiden University Medical Center (LUMC) in the Netherlands with funding from the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, represents a new and potentially worrying advancement in vaccine technology.

The study involved genetically modifying malaria parasites to stop developing after a certain period of time in the human body. The modified parasites, named GA1 and GA2, were designed to prime the immune system without causing a full-blown malaria infection. Researchers then infected mosquitoes with these engineered parasites and allowed them to bite human test subjects in a controlled setting.

In the trial, 43 adults between the ages of 19 and 35 with no prior history of malaria infection were divided into three groups. The first group received 50 bites from mosquitoes infected with the GA2 parasite, the second group received 50 bites from mosquitoes infected with the GA1 parasite, and the third group, serving as a placebo, received 50 bites from uninfected mosquitoes. The participants underwent three vaccination sessions at 28-day intervals.

Three weeks after the final vaccination session, the human test subjects were exposed to malaria infection through bites from infected mosquitoes. The results showed that eight out of nine participants in the GA2 group were effectively protected against malaria, while only one out of eight in the GA1 group and none in the placebo group received protection.

The concept of using mosquitoes as “flying vaccinators” has been explored by scientists for years. In 2010, Japanese researcher Shigeto Yoshida modified mosquito saliva to deliver leishmania vaccines to mice, noting that vaccination by insect could be painless and cost-effective. However, concerns about informed consent and medical safety have hindered the development of this approach. That doesn’t appear to be a concern for Bill Gates and the professors he is funding today.

Which autopsy do you mean exactly?

The Hennepin county autopsy reported cardiopulmonary arrest complicated by restraint, and neck compression. They specifically ruled homicide.

The independent autopsy ruled asphyxiation from sustained pressure.

The LUMC pulmonologist specifically stated “A healthy person subjected to what Mr. Floyd was subjected to would have died."

You also seem to have missed the part where I specifically said that he doesn’t deserve death.

Also yes I think actually killing someone is worse than threatening to kill someone. Obviously Floyd was a huge asshole but I’m just not ok with cops being allowed to summarily execute people and think they should actually have to follow the law.

Giving government agents carte blanche to murder anyone they have designated a criminal seems obviously dangerously authoritarian.

🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼hope he dies painfully and slowly!

Bill Gates is funding scientists in the Netherlands to engineer mosquitoes that inject humans with genetically modified malaria parasites—raising serious ethical and safety concerns about bioengineered vaccines delivered without consent.

If you’ve been following my research over the years, you’ll know this isn’t the first time Bill Gates has been linked to ethically questionable experiments with global consequences.

But this time, it’s not a vaccine center or pharmaceutical company in the headlines—it’s genetically engineered mosquitoes delivering malaria parasites to humans. Yes, you read that right.

For years, the mainstream media have bent over backward to “debunk” claims that Bill Gates has been developing bioengineered vaccines and GMO mosquitoes designed to deliver them to humans without consent. But now, a leading peer-reviewed medical journal has quietly confirmed that’s exactly what he’s been doing.

In a disturbing study published in The New England Journal of Medicine (NEJM), researchers at the Leiden University Medical Center (LUMC) in the Netherlands created mosquitoes capable of injecting humans with bioengineered malaria-causing parasites. These parasites travel to the liver and infect red blood cells.

Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates has pumped millions of dollars into his plan to use a “mosquito army” of “flying vaccinators” to mass vaccinate entire populations without individuals’ consent.In the last two years, billionaire Gates has ramped up efforts to advance the use of mosquitos for vaccinating a hesitant public.In November, a study by Leiden University Medical Center (LUMC) was published in the New England Journal of Medicine.The study concluded that mosquitos could be used as “flying vaccinators.”However, the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation has been funding LUMC’s research for years.The Gates Foundation paid LUMC $1,578,317 in September 2023 and another $2,287,871 in November 2024 to conduct research on vaccinating people with mosquitos.In LUMC’s study, 43 adults aged 19 to 35 with no prior malaria history were divided into three groups.Each group received bites from mosquitos carrying either the GA2 parasite, the GA1 parasite, or no parasite (placebo).The participants underwent three rounds of vaccination by mosquito, spaced 28 days apart.
