Laura Harrington Quotes

• I think that DDT holds a lot of promise. It hasn't been banned everywhere - obviously it has in the U.S. In fact, about 10 years ago, the WHO came out with a statement promoting it for public health interventions in many countries. It's cheap. It's very, very effective. We've never had an insecticide that has worked so well since. It's also safe. A lot of people don't realize that its toxicity profile for humans is low.

• Creo que esta primavera, cuando las poblaciones de mosquitos empiecen a aumentar, debemos tener especial cuidado con los lugares donde se ha transmitido localmente el virus del dengue. La misma especie de mosquito que transmite el Zika también transmite el Dengue. Se limita principalmente a Florida, el sur de Florida, a lo largo de los estados del Golfo y el sur de Texas, con algunas pequeñas poblaciones en Arizona y California.

• Not a lot of attention has been paid to the Asian tiger mosquito, which is another species which we believe can also transmit Zika virus. It has a much broader range. It's found all the way north into coastal areas of Connecticut, Long Island and the New York metro area.
