My God, the pesticide must be severely toxic for them to resort to this kind of protective measure.

A chemical cocktail strong enough to kill off mutated mosquitoes had to be equally deadly to humans; as the mosquitoes had evolved, their vitality and resistance to poison had also evolved by hundreds, or even a thousand times. Unless a gene-altering medicine had been developed, it was safe to say that the pesticide the officers had claimed to be harmless to civilians was complete bullshit. However, even the best biomedical laboratory would not have been able to engineer a mosquito-gene-altering medicine in such short notice – everything was just theoretical.
