“If we all stay inside a bit longer, then maybe we can starve mosquitos to extinction”

The 2019–20 coronavirus pandemic caused people to quarantine in their homes. Many people wondered if all the mosquitoes would starve because of the lack of humans to bite.
   
“Mosquitos are going to starve the next couple months” was posted on Twitter by Rome on March 12, 2020. “Mosquitoes might starve. come out and find no one to bite” was posted on Twitter by Cy on March 15, 2020.
   
“Politics aside, if we all stay inside a bit longer then maybe we can starve mosquitos to extinction. If there was ever a cause to unite all of humanity then this is it” was posted on Twitter by KyloWrench on April 22, 2020.

Politics aside, if we all stay inside a bit longer then maybe we can starve mosquitos to extinction. If there was ever a cause to unite all of humanity then this is it.
