Aussie English

Hey, you guys! What's going on? I got my dad Ian Smissen on the podcast today to talk about a new Australian research! Thanks to research carried out in north Queensland, mosquito-borne diseases such as dengue fever, yellow fever, and Zika virus could be reduced widely. You see, Australia is a very large continent where there are many areas of mosquito infestation. By injecting male mosquitoes with the sterilised Wolbachia bacteria, they were able to prevent the mosquitoes from producing offspring -- no more mosquitoes! Join us today as we chat about how using this world mosquito program can save lives in and out of Australia.
