    Janet, as usual, there is not a grain of truth in your comment.  

    1.  Countless peer-reviewed scientific studies clearly demonstrate the effectiveness of fluoridation.

    2.  Attempting to assess one preventive measure, fluoridation,  based on snapshots of data from different countries, controlling for none of the numerous variables involved in dental decay is, obviously, ludicrous.

    3.  The CDC has not "admitted" anything.  It has duly reported the scientific evidence showing that the effect of fluoride is both topical and systemic....and made its recommendations accordingly.

    4.  If suntan lotion has been demonstrated by peer-reviewed science to prevent sunburn systemically, while causing no adverse effects, your analogy might make some semblance of sense.  Otherwise it is as ridiculous as the rest of your unsubstantiated nonsense.
