Re: “Denver faces anti-fluoride blitz, reviews water supply additives,” July 30 news story.
I felt like I was going back in time to the early 1950s, when the first fluoridation hysteria hit Denver soon after the water department began adding it to the water. I don’t think anyone can show empirical evidence of any damage done to Denver residents from this early innovation. The current round of fluoride hysteria seems to be much ado about nothing.
