In El Salvador spuiten ze mensen gewoon op straat plat met chemtrails, zie video.

Publisher’s rating: De video laat een actie zien opgezet door de overheid van El Salvador in de strijd tegen dengue, een potentieel dodelijke infectieziekte die wordt verspreid door muggen. Bij correct gebruik kennen deze spuitmethodes geen gevaar voor de mens. Met chemtrails heeft dit niks te maken: dat is nog steeds een complottheorie.
