UK - Daily Echo letter - Logic is demanding we reconsider fluoride
Logic is demanding we reconsider fluoride
THE news that children in Southampton suffer no more tooth decay than the national average is very welcome. I am sure the bosses at the South Central Strategic Health Authority are as pleased as I am at this news.
Good public health policy should always be guided by evidence. It is frankly inconceivable that the original decision to proceed with adding fluoride to tap water should not now be revisited.
If the main reason for undertaking this costly and unpopular step has now gone, logic demands that those responsible for deciding the issue should reconsider.
I am writing to the chief executive of the South Central Strategic Health Authority demanding that the matter be formally reconsidered.
They should not forget that the vast majority of us will derive no benefit from mass medication and as taxpayers we are footing the bill,
Cllr DAVID HARRISON, Totton,
