Discussions have highlighted Bill Gates’ ongoing involvement in mosquito-related projects, focusing on disease control and food production innovations. Posts indicate that Gates, through the Gates Foundation, has supported a mosquito factory that breeds 30 million mosquitoes per week, infused with bacteria to reduce virus transmission. This facility, operational since early 2023, has conducted over 50 release cycles across 11 countries, with each cycle releasing approximately 1 million mosquitoes. Initial data suggests a potential reduction in diseases like dengue fever, though specific outcomes remain under evaluation by researchers. Separately, Gates has been linked to funding “All Things Bugs,” a company with a $3 million USDA investment across three funding rounds since 2015, promoting cricket farming for human consumption in multiple third-world countries. The project aims to establish sustainable insect-based food sources, with pilot programs reporting the production of over 500 tons of cricket protein annually. The Gates Foundation has not issued an official statement confirming these details, and the long-term impacts of both initiatives are still being assessed. These efforts continue to generate interest and discussion online.
