        @AmysTruth better to pass on zika to kids than 'play God'? Response: look around you, it wasn't God who cured smallpox-scientists did.

        Some Key Haven residents would rather be exposed to Zika than to mosquitoes that have been rendered harmless. @ABC @AmysTruth

        Yes but the past has shown us that using a more invasive species is not always the right answer in the long run.
