Blair's Bloody Nose
By Dr. H.C. Moolenburgh, Holland*
A couple of years ago Tony Blair asked a
scientific committee in York to establish "once and for all" that
fluoridation is safe and effective.
As Professor Burgstahler has shown, the
report of the York committee was heavily flawed. Much negative data was not
taken into account. Yet the final report was a bloody nose for Tony.
Instead of the claimed 65% (later 50%)
caries reduction the committee came up with a meagre 15% reduction but also
had to confess that they had not been able to find high standard scientific
work confirming the effectiveness of fluoridation.
The report in essence told the dentists to
do their homework over, which of course is a severe case of egg on their
faces after more than half a century fluoridation.
What was really
disturbing was an increase to 48% in disfiguring mottled enamel in the
fluoridation regions.
Moreover, what was really disturbing was an
increase to 48% of disfiguring mottled enamel in the fluoridation regions.
Professor Shusheela says that sometimes the
disfigurement of the frontal teeth is so severe that it interferes with the
marriage chances of girls. (She speaks about India of course, but what about
the "less privileged" classes in the Western world? Is the fluoride lobby
not always crying big crocodile tears about them? Have they the money to
repair the fluoride damage?)
And now look what happens. Tony Blair waits
two years, probably hoping that the nasty facts will
go away, at least fade in the minds of the people. And then his government
announces suddenly that they will try and fluoridate the whole of the United
Kingdom. The spokeswoman of the Dental Association lobbying for a total
fluoridation supports her urging for total fluoridation with the claim that
it "gives up to 50% reduction of caries".
This is a blatant lie in the face of their
own evidence. When will we at last arrest these people and with good, sound
old police work find out what moves them to corrupt science and hoodwink the
public? There must be a reason for their fanatical adherence to a theory
that long has been proved wrong. It is not their concern for children's
teeth so it must be something else.
Do they have a mental illness like the
authorities who haunted witches in the 16th and 17th centuries (Death toll,
100,00 innocent women)? Is it money from the polluting industries? Is there
something in the old story that with fluoridation you can more effectively
control a population (for totalitarians something to make their mouths
water)?
I have never found a satisfying answer, but
I hope to live long enough one day to hear the solution.
