Anti-science quack Robert F. Kennedy Jr., head of the Division of Well being and Human Companies, introduced Tuesday that the Meals and Drug Administration is taking steps to “remove concentrated ingestible fluoride prescription drug products for children from the market.”

Kennedy stated the transfer is “long overdue,” however dentists say it’s not primarily based in actuality and will spike circumstances of tooth decay in youngsters.

In accordance with Kennedy’s press launch, the FDA will conduct a “safety review” of ingestible fluoride tablets and drops by Oct. 31.

“I’m grateful to [FDA] Commissioner [Marty] Makary for his leadership on this vital issue — one that directly safeguards the health and development of our children. This decision brings us one step closer to delivering on President Trump’s promise to Make America Healthy Again,” Kennedy stated.

Kennedy has been pushing misinformation in regards to the impacts of fluoride in ingesting water for years. Throughout an official cupboard assembly final month, he falsely claimed that there’s “a direct inverse correlation between publicity to fluoride and IQ loss, notably in youngsters.”

However Kennedy was conflating research that checked out pure publicity to fluoride, not the minimal quantities which are added to ingesting water.

In November, earlier than he was even nominated as HHS secretary, Kennedy known as for the removing of fluoride from ingesting water, which research have proven will increase tooth decay, notably in youngsters.

If the FDA totally removes ingestible fluoride from the market, it is going to damage youngsters in states like Utah, the place conspiracy theorists efficiently lobbied to ban fluoride from ingesting water. 

The American Dental Affiliation recommends the addition of the naturally occurring mineral to group water sources to assist stop cavities and tooth decay in youngsters.

“When used as directed or within the context of community water fluoridation programs, fluoride is a safe and effective agent that can be used to prevent and control dental caries,” the ADA reality sheet stated.

The ADA additionally particularly recommends the form of dietary supplements that Kennedy is attempting to ban, particularly for kids “at high risk for tooth decay and whose primary drinking water has a low fluoride concentration.”

Like fluoride, Kennedy is focusing on vaccines, which he falsely claims trigger autism.

Kennedy introduced that HHS will now require placebo testing for brand new vaccines, which docs say is unethical as it could require individuals doubtlessly uncovered to lethal illnesses to get a placebo vaccine when an efficient vaccine already exists.

“If we have vaccines or treatments that work, it’s wrong to give some research participants nothing,” Seema Shah, professor of pediatrics at Northwestern College Feinberg College of Drugs and director of analysis ethics at Lurie Kids’s Hospital of Chicago, stated. “There are some exceptions, such as if there is an important scientific reason. For example, some trials of pain medication use placebos because there is a high placebo response.”

In different phrases, Shah stated, “people tend to feel better even if they get a sugar pill. Another exception is when it’s not too risky to give people nothing. But for many diseases, scientists already know how to measure if the vaccine is giving the immune system the information it needs to fight the disease, and there is no need to use a placebo injection.”

It’s actually insane that our well being and wellbeing is being dictated by a mind worm-addled conspiracy theorist who swims in sewage water for enjoyable. I assume we don’t want tooth in Trump’s America.
