Australia - Study shows link to cancer

Study shows link to cancer
IT is reckless for Dr Hall of the health department to say that the bone cancer link to fluoride in water is nothing to worry about. Dr Hall has said that “epidemiological studies show no clear association between fluoride in drinking water and osteosarcoma”. But the study from Harvard University that Hall is trying to downplay is a sophisticated, meticulous, matched case control study. The Harvard team designed it to overcome weaknesses in previous studies by determining exactly which children were consuming fluoride and at what ages. And it shows a very strong connection between drinking fluoride water and development of bone cancer in boys and men, which is a serious red flag to fluoride consumption. I would have thought that a health chief should be exercising great caution and trying to protect the Victorian public from chemical exposures that are likely to be causing cancer.

How many boys and men is he happy to see die, while he waits years and years for further study to confirm this one?

Have we learned nothing?
