   Via health reporter Annie Waldman:

   Calgary stopped adding fluoride to its water in 2011.

   What happened?

   "The need for intravenous antibiotic therapy by children to avoid death by infection rose 700% at the Alberta Children’s Hospital." - Dr. James Dickinson @ University of Calgary

   Steve Inskeep:

   ..#RFKJr repeats that the new administration will recommend getting flouride out of drinking water on Jan. 20. Adds the administration will give "information" on vaccines.

     @genehack @xi_timpin — thanks for the heads-up. I only stumbled on the block comment and see you’re arguing with a fucking moron that Dunning-Kruger’ed his way into conspiracy theories on fluoride.
     I just had a conversation (literally) with someone with a coworker that keeps calling out because she keeps breaking her teeth. Poor woman grew up on a well and not on fluoridated water on a farm. This is the future of our kids under #MAGA and #RFKjr

     @genehack @GottaLaff @danlyke Are you telling me there are no toothpastes containing fluoride in North America?

     Fluoride IS a toxin that leeches calcium out of bones. Not good news for anyone with osteoporosis and utterly pointless for people without their own teeth.

     @GottaLaff @danlyke I’m wondering who stands to make money off people having to buy fluorine supplements to dose their own water…
