How can you believe anything they say?
PEOPLE may still not know who is telling the truth about fluoridation despite or maybe because of the strength of the views expressed by both sides, those for fluoridation and those against.
Professors take completely opposed sides dismissing each other and their views with disdain. For all those who still trust those in favour of fluoridation to tell you the truth, consider the following statement in the British Dental Association's (BDA) 2010 manifesto. Quote "In 2008 South Central Strategic Health Authority (SCSHA) carried out consultations on proposals to introduce fluoride to water supplies in Southampton and South West Hampshire. Despite gaining much local support, progress on the proposal stalled, pending a judicial review of the decision.
"Despite gaining much local support?" - do you agree with that? Any Echo reader would know this is not the case. If the BDA can twist facts like that what credence their assurances that fluoridation is safe and effective? Who would now believe anything they said?
BILL EDMUNDS, Cadnam.
• I have read the letter 'Strong Fluoride Objection' from Mr and Mrs Andrew, Chandler's Ford. Very well put, it is so true and makes me smile ... just a little bit.
I, too, am still waiting and hoping for the Strategic Health Authority to finally understand the meaning of the word 'Democracy', preferably before they waste any more public money, that could be so much better spent!
Yes, exactly, why don't they just 'wash their hands of it' once and for all.... in unfluoridated water, of course!
